The After
by J Taylor

---

Despite the deadly virus that caused borders to close and governments to fall ten years earlier, fourteen-year-old Charlotte and her family have lived a challenging yet relatively peaceful life, isolated on their acreage in rural Nova Scotia. However, when Charlotte discovers that an interloper has infiltrated their property, she must decide between keeping the potential threat a secret or embracing the potential for companionship that the intrusion represents. As the chaotic world that lurks outside the fence surrounding her farm disrupts Charlotte’s life even further, she must reach deep within herself and find the courage to become the mature young woman she claims to be—or risk losing everything that she and her family have worked so hard to build.

J. Taylor is a mother of five and a classroom teacher who revels in the magic of storytelling. Like the protagonist of her novel, she grew up in Nova Scotia. However, she has since lived in Resolute Bay and Hall Beach, Nunavut, as well as Kelowna, BC, before settling in Calgary, AB. Her love of writing was inspired by her love of reading, which she has made a priority in her home and in her classroom. When she’s not reading, writing, or teaching, J. Taylor enjoys sports of all kinds, visiting her grown children, and getting out into nature.
