The girls who fought crime : the untold true story of the country's first female investigator and her crime fighting squad / by Eder, Mari K.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."From corsets to crime fighting, Mae Foley challenged the patriarchal status quo by not only juggling family life, but also by forming the first female auxiliary police force in the City That Never Sleeps.

Foley starred down the barrel of the gun--from facing the patriarchy head on, but also quite literally--and always came out on top"--
