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

“You have a school here? For who? Your soldiers?” I ask to clarify, even though I see four little girls, not soldiers. Grandmother shakes her head, no.


“Yes, it is a school. But not for my soldiers, the school is for other young witches, just like you.” Grandmother watches me to see my reaction. I am shocked. I stumble back into the hallway and one of the little girls turns to face me. She looks tired and dirty, she looks at me and it looks like she needs help. My heart aches for her. I can picture my mom in the same situation. She would have been all alone, sitting there in desperate need of saving. 


“There are other witches?” That is the first thing I address. I am shocked, I wonder if they showed my Mom that we aren’t the only witches in the world. “We’re not the only ones…” I say softly and stare at the room of girls. Slowly they all turn to face me.


“Who are you?” One of them asks, looking up at me.
