LOOKING FOR JANE
Heather Marshall

Reviewed by Evie Harris
Posted February 27, 2023

Women's Fiction

The discovery of a letter that was placed in the wrong mailbox years ago intertwines the lives of three women. The contents of the letter reveal a long-held secret and a confession. In 2017, Angela Creighton, who found the letter, makes the decision to find the intended recipient.  As for the results of her quest, she has no idea of what it will uncover and she can only hope she doesn't do more damage than good.

What follows in LOOKING FOR JANE by Heather Marshall is a beautifully rendered story that deals with sensitive issues that include abortion, suicide, motherhood, and abuse. The story is set in Canada and is told in the voices of the protagonists over a span of several decades. Based on true stories, LOOKING FOR JANE highlights the remarkable and dedicated women who were part of the Jane Collective, a pro-choice group. There are aspects of this book that are difficult to read.  Even so, they are crucial to the story.

Heather Marshall's author note is extremely interesting and informative. Impeccably researched, she provides details about a disturbing time in women's rights.  LOOKING FOR JANE is well worth reading.  Highly recommended.

SUMMARY

#1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLERThis “powerful debut” (Hello! Canada) for fans of Kristin Hannah and Jennifer Chiaverini about three women whose lives are bound together by a long-lost letter, a mother’s love, and a secret network of women fighting for the right to choose—inspired by true stories.2017: When Angela Creighton discovers a mysterious letter containing a life-shattering confession, she is determined to find the intended recipient. Her search takes her back to the 1970s when a group of daring women operated an illegal underground abortion network in Toronto known only by its whispered code name: Jane.1971: As a teenager, Dr. Evelyn Taylor was sent to a home for “fallen” women where she was forced to give up her baby for adoption—a trauma she has never recovered from. Despite harrowing police raids and the constant threat of arrest, she joins the Jane Network as an abortion provider, determined to give other women the choice she never had.1980: After discovering a shocking secret about her family, twenty-year-old Nancy Mitchell begins to question everything she has ever known. When she unexpectedly becomes pregnant, she feels like she has no one to turn to for help. Grappling with her decision, she locates “Jane” and finds a place of her own alongside Dr. Taylor within the network’s ranks, but she can never escape the lies that haunt her.Looking for Jane is “a searing, important, beautifully written novel about the choices we all make and where they lead us—as well as a wise and timely reminder of the difficult road women had to walk not so long ago” (Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author).
