Without Apology

The Jane Smith Trilogy, Book 3

A trilogy for our times--
Stories for all time--
Without Apology

In this last book of the Jane Smith Trilogy, the year is 1959. Jane is forty-five. She has survived Nazis and gendarmes, been jilted by an admiral’s daughter, nearly lost her favorite student to an illegal abortion, found the love of her life, provided abortion care under men's noses for two decades, and confessed her secrets to the one whose judgment she feared most.

But new questions loom:

• Will the healing traditions of Indigenous women change everything at Our Lady?

• Will a devastating mistake cost Jane the love of her life?

• Will Jane succeed in her mission to transform abortion care?

• What is Jane’s soul-shattering apology and last message?

This is a story of facing demons, choosing family, and defying the Laws of men to provide abortion care without permission, without authority, and without apology.

The trilogy calls us to courage—reminding us that in a world ruled by patriarchy and the worst in human nature, we must be fierce and express our fury.
