Program Description

Event Details

Girl Waits with Gun is an enthralling novel based on the forgotten true story of one of the nation’s first female deputy sheriffs.


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. 

Inspired by newspaper clippings of real events in the lives of Deputy Constance Kopp and her sisters, Amy Stewart draws a vivid picture of these forgotten crime fighters' lives in rural Hackensack, New Jersey in 1914 and beyond..
