In this society, paranoia is well-suited because eyes and ears are all around, and they are judging. Always judging. This terrifying (and yet somehow vaguely familiar) terrain is explored via Eleanor - a young woman eagerly learning about the gifts of her magic through the support of her coven. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut being a white witch is not as easy as they portray it in the books, and she's already been placed under 'house arrest' with a letch named Stan, a co-worker who wronged her in the past and now exists in the form of a cat. A talking cat who loves craft beers, picket lines, and duping and 'shooting' people. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEleanor has no time for Stan and his shenanigans, because she finds herself helping another coven locate a missing witch which she thinks is mysteriously linked to the shortage of water in Liberty. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eFile Under: \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eFantasy\u003c\/b\u003e [ Liberty for All Water is Beautiful Eyes Everywhere Stanning for Stan ]\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKAREN HEULER is a literary sci-fi\/fantasy author.
