Since 1962 New Yorkers have cheered and jeered the exploits of the New York Mets on the baseball diamond. A century before these Amazins took the field, there was another team of New York Metropolitans being cheered and jeered by the citizenry. The New York Metropolitan Police Department, nicknamed "Mets" existed only from 1857 to 1870. This is the story of their short, but fascinating life span.
In the bustling streets of New York City near the turn of the 20th-century, Isabella Goodwin's world was shattered when her police officer husband died, leaving her to pick up the pieces and provide for her children. Isabella faced a formidable challenge in a society that relegated women to traditional domestic roles, but she was about to defy the odds and embark on a journey that would change the course of NYPD history forever. "The First Detective" is an inspiring and gripping tale that chronicles Isabella Goodwin's remarkable life, from a grieving widow to a groundbreaking figure in law enforcement. Fueled by her unwavering determination and an unyielding desire for justice, Isabella shattered the barriers that restricted women from pursuing careers in the New York City Police Department, and to ultimately become - the First Detective.
