Finally! Another of the Kopp Sister novels! Thanks to County Reader for telling me that Lady Cop Makes Trouble, by Amy Stewart was available. It’s 1915, New York City, and lady cops are not common, in fact, they are often not even wanted other than serving as matrons on the women’s floor of a prison. Constance Kopp is good, though, and has been appointed as one of the first female detectives. Will she be able to hold on to that position? Based on real sisters, this is a grand historical mystery.

Here is the second in a new series I mentioned not too long ago: Lord James Harrington and the Spring Mystery, by Lynn Florkiewicz. It’s time for the spring fair and Lord James and his wife, Beth, have a lot planned for the celebration. To their surprise, an elderly recluse has asked if she can come, and then ends up dead. What is the connection with the rest of the villagers? And who is the young man with amnesia? This series is off to a great start!
