The Hive- Jane Holland- Thriller-+ Giveaway************
Charlotte has a disfigured face from when she fell into a fire as a child twenty years
ago. She lives at home with her parents and live in boyfriend Alex. Her mother is very
low and her father is suffering from dementia which is affecting them all, despite
having help. When her mother is no longer around Charlotte finds out just how bad
things are with her father trying to deal with him herself but there are other things
going on. Alex is an investigative journalist, his latest project is something close to
his heart- the Russian mafia.  Charlotte is convinced that she is hearing a buzz
somewhere in the loft or attic space and when a box of dead bees arrive the plot
thickens. I took to Charlotte and her reticence from the world around her. Her
wanting to do the best for her father whilst struggling in her own world. This is a
different read - its almost a domestic tale with added buzz(every pun intended).
That underlying knowledge that something just something is happening but
you know not what. There are occasional short chapters giving letters, talking
of someone being very keen on bees but we don’t know who the
correspondence is between. Oooh! The last few chapters are where it really
gets rather gritty (trigger warning- child abuse- only mentioned in passing
though). A very different read, brilliantly done.
