Erin wanted to give her daughter, Charlie, a normal childhood, but Charlie isn't a normal child. Charlie and her mother are both witches. After escaping government captors, Erin gave birth on the run and spent many years moving Charlie from town to town to avoid being locked up and experimented on. When Charlie started high school, Erin made a promise they wouldn't move again until she had graduated. Now, they've made it to senior year without issue but when a new kid shows up at school, Charlie notices something strange about him. In order to uncover the truth, she begins acting out of character and going behind her mother's back to handle everything on her own. Charlie's reckless behavior opens the door for trouble to quickly find them once again. With Erin as her teacher, Charlie still has a lot to learn before she is ready to face the unknown evils that have been after them for all these years.

Witches In Suburbia

“Wait, so he is in all of your classes?” Elizabeth asks. We’re early to school today so we’re waiting outside. Elizabeth and I are sitting under the shade of a big tree while Emily is a couple of feet away laying on the pavement, in the sun. 


“Most of them, yeah. We only have two classes apart from each other. One being Social Studies with Emily at the end of the day,” I say and lean back against the tree's base. I shrug. “He seems nice.”


“Have we met him?” Emily pushes her shades back up her nose and lays back in the sun, resting her head on her backpack. 


“No, I don’t think y’all have met him.” I stand up and brush the dirt off my butt. Elizabeth follows suit and eventually, Emily pries herself off the ground and fixes herself as well. Emily swings her backpack over her shoulder right as the bell rings. 


“Is he cute?” Emily asks the important question.
