About this ebook

Whatever happened to Jane Roe's baby? Norma McCorvey, of Caddo-Comanche heritage, did not terminate the pregnancy that led her to become the anonymous plaintiff of the landmark U.S. Supreme Court women's rights case Roe v Wade because in 1971, when the motion was first argued, abortion in the U.S. was illegal. The Jane Roe real-life child would now be a woman in her late forties, the potential of her polarizing celebrity unknown to her. A splintered U.S. religious rights group has blackmailed its way into learning the identity of the Roe baby, the product of a closed adoption. To what end, only a new Supreme Court case will reveal. Tourette's afflicted K9 bounty hunter Judge Drury, a retired Marine, stands in the way of the splintered group's attempt at stacking the Supreme Court via blackmail, murder, arson, sleight of hand, and secret identities.
