Aprašymas

Avery Mann, a retired pharmaceuticals executive, is in crisis. His wife dies of cancer, his son's marriage is on the rocks, his grandson is having a meltdown, and his good friend is a victim of the robocalls scandal that invades the Canadian federal election.

Throw in a reckless fling with a former colleague, a fire that destroys his retirement property, and a rumour emerging that the drug he helped bring to market years ago may have been responsible for the death of his wife, and Avery's life goes into freefall.

Does an octogenarian bee keeper living on Vancouver Island hold the key to Avery's recovery, a man holding secrets that put lives in jeopardy? Avery races across the country to find out, with crooked bosses, politicians, and assassins on his tail.

Shane Joseph spins a cautionary tale of corporate and political greed that is endemic of our times.
