With the success of the Purge, The Prime Minister has ceased hostilities against those accused of witchcraft. Following the new protocols, any accused must submit to a trial by law, and evidence must be given to prove the accused is beyond reasonable doubt a witch. The Government has issued a statement, saying that a baby bonus will be issued to encourage families to rebuild the population in the wake of the war.
Acknowledgements
Writing a debut novel and self-publishing is a tremendous, but rewarding job. Thank you to all of my friends and family involved in helping make my dream a reality. Special thanks to my husband, Matt, who has encouraged me every step of the way (and cooked yummy dinners); my sisters, Dianna, Natalie and especially Heidi, who were the first to read the novel and relentlessly encouraged my multiple creative outbursts and proof read like crazy; to my in-laws Julie and Graham, who looked after the kids on many occasions and have helped sponsor my writing efforts in more ways than one; my editor, Ann Harth, who has taught me so much; Kylie Grida, for her enthusiasm in proofreading my final document; my writing buddies, Louisa West who has been a constant support and critique partner. Tess Woods, Anna Hackett and Michelle Diener who made me feel like I’m part of something bigger than my little study.
