Miss Kopp's Midnight Confessions

by Amy Stewart
A Kopp Sisters Novel (#3)
Scott County Library hardcover 35 pages
genre: historical mystery fiction

Stewart has again taken the pieces of historical fact and woven a believable and enjoyable work of fiction. It is so weird to think of the change in our country over the past one hundred years . . . for good and for ill. Constance is upset about girls being arrested "over dubious charges of waywardness, incorrigibility, and moral depravity." I loved how Edna Heustis' life intertwined with Minnie Davis' . . . and I was pleasantly surprised by the resolution of Fleurette's situation. I hope Stewart continues writing these books! (I was surprised - and curious to know if it's true - that a sheriff at that time in New Jersey was only allowed to serve one term.)
