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

“I brought you some food. Well, lots of food actually.” Max lifts the tray that he is holding. It is filled with food and a few cups with liquids in them. “I wasn’t sure they fed you yesterday or this morning so I added a few extra things when I volunteered to bring the food to you.”


“Did you know there were others?” I ask Max and he looks up at me. The change in subject startles him. I don’t know if he was expecting a pleasant conversation or even a thank you for bringing me food. And while I am grateful to be able to eat, the food smells amazing, that again does not make up for anything he has done.


“That there are other witches,” I say, and take a couple of steps toward him and then snatch an apple off the tray he is holding. I retreat back to the far side of the room and I take a bite while I wait for him to answer.
