Their Heart A Hive

You've been summoned to Honeymoore Manor. Will you discover its secrets in this unique spin on the vampire story?

Lowen's a lowborn boy dealing with grief and battling bad luck when he's summoned to Honeymoore Manor.

Within its walls, he finds a new family and becomes entangled in the life of genderqueer aristocrat, Tamorna Rosen Roane, and his strange hive of bees. But behind every bee is a sting.

Drawing inspiration from Dracula and Jane Eyre, Cornish folklore and Arthuriana, this sensuous gothic re-imagines the Regency as a queer normative world without a boundary between myth and reality.

A story of shanties and secrets, of long dead giants and merfolk that mind the sea, where piskies provide luck and the beast of Brasbudfand stalks the night.

Balancing the macabre and the absurd, Their Heart A Hive offers a lyrical fable about the power of kindness and how no one is ever beyond help.

"A beautiful book in both style and substance. That I was left in tears at the end only speaks to how lovely the story is and how invested I became in the characters and their outcome"

"A quiet and melancholy tale that explores the depths of depression, grief, regret, and how the power of kindness and caring can grant redemption and a kind of peace to even those who seem beyond saving."

"There's a really moving redemption arc, skilfully crafted so that every loss hits hard, drawing the reader in to really emotionally invest in the tale and its complicated characters"
