"Killers of Roe": Amy Littlefield Investigates the "Mysterious Death of Abortion Rights" in U.S.

Killers of Roe is a new book by the reproductive rights journalist Amy Littlefield on what she describes as the death of abortion rights in the United States. The book is framed as a murder mystery, examining a twisted alliance of believers and opportunists" in the years and decades before the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022. It started out as a murder mystery because it was a way to entice myself to tell a really difficult story about women dying preventable deaths as a result of anti-abortion policy," says Littlefield.
