The Hive Volume 1 -- A. J. Liberman, Paperback

The Hive is nothing you'd expect but everything you'd want in a dirty, neo-noir story set in a world where some people can connect and control others like a Queen Bee in a hive.

Mason Shaw is no one. A worker bee. All that changes when he crosses paths with a few stragglers trying to stay one step ahead of a queen with immense powers. There are those among us that can connect and manipulate the people around them into a hivemind state--like a beehive. These people are called Hivers. It's not hypnotism. It's not some kind of drug. It's biological.

The Hive is about a group of hunted hivers struggling to remain one step ahead of their wrathful former queen who is hunting them down. But when a mysterious worker bee gets recruited it starts a series of events that puts everyone on a collision course and will end with everyone in danger... especially the Queen.

Sex. Violence. And Bees. Welcome to The Hive.
