About this listen
Trailblazing Constance's hard-won job as deputy sheriff is on the line in Miss Kopp Just Won't Quit, the fourth installment of Amy Stewart's Kopp Sisters series.
After a year on the job, New Jersey's first female deputy sheriff has collared criminals, demanded justice for wronged women, and gained notoriety nationwide for her exploits. But on one stormy night, everything falls apart.
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.
In both cases, Constance runs instinctively toward justice. But the fall of 1916 is a high-stakes election year, and any move she makes could jeopardize Sheriff Heath's future - and her own. Although Constance is not on the ballot, her controversial career makes her the target of political attacks.
With wit and verve, book-club favorite Amy Stewart brilliantly conjures the life and times of the real Constance Kopp to give us this "unforgettable, not-to-be messed-with heroine" (Marie Claire) under fire in Miss Kopp Just Won't Quit.

Story
The first audiobook which appeared in Georges Simenon's famous Maigret series, in a gripping new translation by David Bellos.Inevitably Maigret was a hostile presence in the Majestic. He constituted a kind of foreign body that the hotel's atmosphere could not assimilate. Not that he looked like a cartoon policeman. He didn't have a moustache and he didn't wear heavy boots. His clothes were well cut and made of fairly light worsted. He shaved every day and looked after his hands. But his frame was proletarian. He was a big, bony man.

Story
For all the monumental documentation that Watergate generated - uncountable volumes of committee records, court transcripts, and memoirs - it falls at last to a novelist to perform the work of inference (and invention) that allows us to solve some of the scandal’s greatest mysteries - who did erase those eighteen-and-a-half minutes of tape? - and to see this gaudy American catastrophe in its human entirety. In Watergate, Thomas Mallon conveys the drama and high comedy of the Nixon presidency through the urgent perspectives of seven characters we only thought we knew.

My favorite of the series so far.
The last quarter of the book really spoke to me, the anxiety of limbo, the grief of loss, and the outside perspective giving the understanding and compassionate kick in the ass sometimes needed in that grief.

Thoroughly enjoyable series!
I am thoroughly enjoying this series. I highly recommend it for those who enjoy a book series without vulgar language and sexual situations.
These are not mysteries, nor romance, yet I'm finding the stories interesting due to the fact that they take the reader (listener) back to what life was like in New Jersey 100 years ago. I am a NJ resident, and I live locally to the towns that are in the book. The three sisters are interesting characters, and quite naive.
One thing I will point out, though, is that the book ends abruptly (at least my download did), leaving me with the question "was that the end of the book? Did I miss something?" I went to the library and borrowed the hardback book, and found that, yes, I did hear the end. Most audiobooks end with "thank you for listening", or something to that effect.

Best book of the series yet
All the stars! This is one of my favorite series ever, and this is the best installment yet. Constance Kopp is one of the best characters out there and we get to see her in a somewhat different light in this book. In general I would describe the series as somewhat serious romps as Constance follows a case and has humorous interactions with her sisters, but there are also important and weighty reflections on issues women faced at this time in history. But this book, THIS BOOK. Besides the usual storylines, a major theme in this book is grief and depression following a loss of something that had been central to one's identity. It's so tender and emotional and raw, that I can't really think of anything intelligent to say about it because I am still so deep in my feelings, having just finished it. I just want to yell at everyone to read this series, but certainly don't start with this one--it's best appreciated in order. Thank you Amy Stewart for bringing us this character, both for shedding light on a little-known historical figure and for everything that's wonderful about the fictional version of Constance (and her sisters) that you have brought to life.
Christina Moore's narration is superb, as always.

At Last
My favorite so far. Grabbed my interest from the start and I listened to it all in one sitting. Not the norm for me! I was surprised when it was over. I liked the lawyer/deputy sheriff duo a lot and hope the author expands Caroline Kopps' world to include characters with more dimension than the other two sisters. I know they each have their own backstory but the dynamic between the three is just annoying to me. Nevertheless, I'm buying the next book and hoping for the best because this one was just so good.

Another good entry in this series
I enjoyed this book as I have earlier books in the series. The narrator is easy to listen to and she does well with the various characters.
