Narrated by Christina Moore.
Constance Kopp doesn't quite fit the mold. She towers over most men, has no interest in marriage or domestic affairs, and has been isolated from the world since a family secret sent her and her sisters into hiding fifteen years ago. One day a belligerent and powerful silk factory owner runs down their buggy, and a dispute over damages turns into a war of bricks, bullets, and threats as he unleashes his gang on their family farm. When the sheriff enlists her help in convicting the men, Constance is forced to confront her past and defend her family -- and she does it in a way that few women of 1914 would have dared. Based on the true story of one of America's first female deputy sheriffs.

Fun read submitted by 21621031390949 on August 1, 2016, 7:33pm Entertaining and fun, I really enjoyed listening to this book. I look forward to the sequel. Strong female characters in the Wild West.

Great Series submitted by kbcmmom on July 24, 2020, 10:53am I enjoyed all three books and the interplay between the characters and their allies. The fact that they are "loosely" based on a historical figure added to my interest and led me into further research about the beginnings of women in law enforcement. I love reading about strong female lead characters who paved the way for other women.
