As a feminist she would have liked to help the young girl in trouble but as a doctor with a practice and other patients counting on her she doesn’t feel like she can risk breaking the law for a complete stranger. When the poor girl turns up dead, Charley’s entire life is thrown into chaos.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePerhaps Margaret Millar’s most controversial book—and certainly among her best—\u003ci\u003eDo Evil in Return\u003c\/i\u003e is a meticulously plotted and suspenseful meditation on abortion and the hypocrisy of the laws governing a woman’s body.
