It's a New Order. Children are drafted, and Josephine, renamed Joey, endures physical and emotional brutality while waiting for a chance to escape. But the Militia are skilled in crushing the spirits of even the strongest individuals...
Susan Kaye Behm was born and raised in the mid-west and is the older of two children. Writing has been a great love of her life. She has always enjoyed writing and has found it a meaningful way of expressing her thoughts and feelings. There's nothing that sends her spirit soaring like looking at the beauty of God's sunset and using the power of language to express that scene. She uses this power for everything from lifting her spirits when she is feeling down to describing a vacation in such vivid detail that the reader feels as though they have come along on the trip.
Ms. Behm graduated from Tennessee Temple University in Chattanooga, Tennessee, as an Education major. She worked at the school to pay for her education and learned the valuable lesson of an education that one has had to work for.
After graduation, Ms. Behm moved to the Washington, D.C. area, and is currently working for a long-term care facility as an Information Technology Coordinator. She uses her education training to assist staff members in learning how to better use the technology at hand to enable the staff to better serve their community.
Susan K. Behm, author of Civilized Savages, is the outspoken voice for those who are unable to speak for themselves. As an abuse survivor, she understands better than the average individual the importance of raising awareness of the effects of abuse on an individual. She bravely speaks out against the most extreme forms of child labor and ritual abuse. In her novels, she illustrates that abuse of every type is going on not only around the world, but in our own country as well. No child is safe while this threat exists.
In her free time, Ms. Behm spends her time caring for two exuberant black labs named Cal Ripken and Sammy Sosa. In addition, she is actively involved as a volunteer at her church and is an avid teddy bear collector
