In 1915, lady cops were not expected to chase down fugitives on the streets of New York City. But after arresting a ruthless silk factory owner and his gang of thugs, Constance Kopp has earned her place as the nation's first female deputy sheriff. But when a con man escapes from jail on her watch, she must find him before he disappears completely, and she ends up right back where she started - unemployed. Based on the forgotten, true story of one of the US's first female deputy sheriffs.
