Kopp Sisters on the March

Kopp Sisters on the March by Amy Stewart, 355 pages

In this fifth book in the Kopp Sisters series, Stewart sends the indomitable former sheriff's deputy Constance Kopp and her sisters to a National Service School for patriotic women intent on helping out in the upcoming Great War. While there, the Kopp sisters cross paths with a young woman who's living under an assumed name and running from a scandalous past.

While Stewart admits in her historical notes at the end that she diverges from the historical truth more in this book than in any of the previous Kopp Sisters novels (yes, Constance Kopp and her sisters, and many of their travails, are real), the scandalous young woman, the National Service Schools, and so many of the minor characters in this novel are firmly based in history. I love this series, and the excellent women at the center of it.
