Hive Minds

Naomi Green, a fierce beekeeper and environmentalist in rural Texas, is no stranger to stings-both from her hives and from life. A woman of Black, Irish, and Puerto Rican heritage with three failed marriages and a rebellious teenage daughter, Naomi has learned to follow her instincts, especially when injustice lurks close to home.

While rescuing a bee colony on a neighbor's property, she uncovers signs of abuse beneath the surface of a picture-perfect marriage. What begins as concern becomes a dangerous crusade when Naomi confronts the charming yet volatile man behind the façade. Her need to protect puts her in the crosshairs of a violent adversary, threatening everything she loves.

As Naomi fights to hold her family and convictions together, unexpected allies emerge-including a gruff local exterminator who challenges her guard in surprising ways. In a town tangled with secrets, Naomi must decide how far she's willing to go to make things right.

Hive Minds is a powerful story of resilience, activism, and the courage it takes to stand up-even when the cost is everything.
