After a year on the job, New Jersey's first female deputy sheriff has gained notoriety nationwide for her exploits. But on one stormy night, while transporting a woman to an insane asylum, Deputy Kopp discovers something deeply troubling about her story. Before she can investigate, another inmate bound for the asylum breaks free and tries to escape. The fall of 1916 is a high-stakes election year, and any move Constance makes could jeopardize Sheriff Heath's future-- and her own. -- Adapted from dust jacket of hardcover edition.
