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 look well this morning, dear,” Grandmother’s voice causes me to turn around quickly. I almost stumble over my costume which is in a pile on the floor. I hear Grandmother chuckle and I scowl in response. 


 I’ve been up for a couple of hours, well, I really couldn’t sleep that well. I, maybe, got 3 or 4 hours of sleep. But that is not including the hour or so of sleep I got before Max interrupted me. 


I rub my eyes trying to keep myself awake now. I need to be awake and focused on whatever this is. I steady myself and brace for her next words.


“You look a lot like your mother, except for that hair,” Grandmother says as she is led into the room. A guard gives her a chair to sit on and it is placed in front of the bed I once occupied. Grandmother gestures for me to take a seat, and I decided to oblige. There isn’t much else I can do, and if I play along maybe this will go by quicker. “That hair, wow, it looks just like Marcus. I assume your mother told you about him, didn’t she?”
