Investigative journalist and abortion access correspondent for The Nation, Amy Littlefield had been reporting on reproductive healthcare and abortion for a decade when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022. Her immediate response to the ruling: “They are going to kill people.” Now she provides a deeply reported account critical to understanding the anti-abortion movement’s strategy over the past 50 years. Pairing her poignant reporting with her love for murder mysteries, Killers of Roe is an abortion whodunit that introduces unexpected characters, secret killers and suspects, and hidden motives behind the death of a fundamental human right. She set out to investigate the murderers of Roe, and as in every good murder mystery, the killers turn out to be those least suspected, from the disgraced former Congressman obsessed with offshore tax avoidance to the retired grandfather who wrote one of America’s most diabolical anti-abortion policies. Plot twists lurk around every corner, as she meets believers, opportunists, and complicated heroes. Amy is a frequent commentator on abortion for TV and radio news outlets and podcasts, including MSNBC and Democracy Now!.
