The Music of Bees by Eileen Garvin

When social pariah Alice Holtzman crashes her pick-up truck packed with 120,000 restless honeybees into a troubled, paraplegic teenager, it is the start of an unlikely friendship that will help both of them through the darkest stages of grief.
A hopeful, heart-warming, uplifting story about the power of chosen family. . but it's the bees, with all their wonder and intricacy and intrigue, that make this story sing * Laurie Frankel, New York Times bestselling author of This Is How It Always Is *
A special treat for nature lovers, The Music of Bees is full of warmth and hope and decency * Rebecca Hardiman, author of Good Eggs *
The Music of Bees is a transportive tale to lighten the heart. Eileen Garvin has woven a hypnotic human story of perseverance and second chances with a glittering love letter to our pollinators. It combines a cast of marvellous characters with an utterly exquisite excursion into the buzzy life of bees. Every page hums with hope, gleaming with a message of our inextricable interconnectedness, both within our own species and to our home of the natural world. The Music of Bees is an enchanting book of belonging, overcoming adversity and the journey to find a hive of one's own. * Kira Jane Buxton *
