Set in a dystopian alternate history version of America where Roe V Wade had the opposite outcome and never resulted in rights for abortion, instead being known as Roe's Folly, a decision that eventually led to a national right to life amendment that outlawed all forms of abortion and contraception as murder, and created a police state to enforce them, and where pro-choice protesters are viewed as potential terrorists.
In this alternate America suffering from the effects of tremendous crime, poverty and overpopulation with over 400 million citizens, a young girl named Destiny finds herself pregnant with an unwanted pregnancy which will lead to a legal battle before the Supreme Court that could alter the history of the nation in a chilling cautionary tale, that in light of the recent overturning of Roe V Wade could be showing us a vision of not so much an alternate history, but a possible dystopian future.
This and 18 other dystopian tales involving overpopulation, theocracies, pregnancy monitoring chips, abortion bounty hunters, illegal pregnancies and other methods about about how control of women's reproductive freedoms can result in totalitarian misogynistic societies.
