The first installment of The Underground Ballerina Saga. Entitled The Program, as it is the shortest book in the series.
It is an overview of the journey ahead, punctuated with real images from the tragedy that unfolds in future installments. This sort of soft-release was done intentionally as a courtesy to the reader. The author knows that delving straight in may prove to be overwhelming for the faint of heart. This novelette serves as a trigger-warning of sorts.
It is the author's hope that in the sharing of her own misfortune, the reader may be encouraged, inspired and ultimately become privvy to very real dangers, currently hidden in plain sight.
This series proves that everyone is born with a purpose, it is just a matter of uncovering it. Sometimes that uncovering happens by way of a very dark journey. Such is the case of our vigilante.
When devastating events occur, one either becomes bitter or better. This saga is a tale of the latter outcome. The depths of the loss are monumental, but despite overwhelming odds, a champion is born, an alchemist is ignited.
While The Underground Ballerina Saga itself is very dark content, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, should the reader choose to proceed.
Consider The Program a warning label. Reader discretion is advised.
Written as a first heavenly birthday present for her late son and only child, it was completed on what would have been his seventeenth birthday.
The Underground Ballerina Saga will inevitably intrigue, horrify and rouse readers everywhere.
