Description

A remarkable and unforgettable story of loss and redemption, Like Bees to Honey is Caroline Smailes' third novel. The author draws upon her own family history for this poignant tale, which follows Nina as she returns to Malta with her young son in search of reconciliation with her father and siblings. In Malta, Nina discovers that the island is full of souls in various stages of transition, and she begins to understand why she has really come back. As she travels round the island and learns from seven friendly spirits, Nina is forced to face some startling truths that will haunt the reader long after they put the book down. With its unique blend of psychological insight and supernatural mystery, Like Bees to Honey is a remarkable story that will break through to the mainstream audience it so richly deserves.
