Glamorous messiah or charlatan? A mask of beauty hides deadly secrets in #1 New York Times and Amazon Charts bestselling author Gregg Olsen’s mesmerizing novel of suspense.

In the Pacific Northwest, detective Lindsay Jackman is investigating the murder of a young journalist found at the bottom of a ravine. Lindsay soon learns that the victim was writing an exposé. Her subject: a charismatic wellness guru who’s pulled millions into her euphoric orbit…

To hear Marnie Spellman tell it, when she was a child, a swarm of bees lifted her off the ground and toward the sunlight, illuming her spiritual connection with nature—an uncanny event on which Marnie built a cosmetics empire and became a legend, a healer, and the queen of holistic health and eternal beauty. In her inner circle is an intimate band of devotees called the Hive. They share Marnie’s secrets of success—including one cloaked in darkness for twenty years.

Determined to uncover the possibly deadly mysteries of the group, Lindsay focuses her investigation on Marnie and the former members of the Hive, who are just as determined to keep Lindsay from their secrets as they are to maintain their status.

In Gregg Olsen's captivating novel, "The Hive," readers are transported to the eerie and secluded world of Orcas Island, where a disturbing disappearance becomes a catalyst for unearthing a chilling conspiracy that threatens to shake the very foundation of society.

The protagonist, Evelyn "Evie" Sterling, is a young woman whose uneventful life takes a sinister turn when her boyfriend, Will, mysteriously vanishes without a trace. Determined to uncover the truth behind his disappearance, Evie embarks on a perilous journey that leads her to the enigmatic "Hive," an organization shrouded in secrecy and rumored to possess immense power.

As Evie delves deeper into the mystery, she stumbles upon a hidden world of genetic manipulation and mind control, where unsuspecting individuals are transformed into programmable agents known as "Sleepers." The Hive's ultimate goal becomes horrifyingly clear: to establish a global network of sleeper agents capable of infiltrating governments, corporations, and even the highest echelons of power.

With each step closer to the truth, Evie finds herself trapped in a deadly game of cat and mouse, pursued by ruthless operatives determined to silence her forever. She must race against time to expose the Hive's nefarious plot and prevent a dystopian future where free will and individual identity are mere illusions.

Gregg Olsen's "The Hive" is a gripping techno-thriller that explores the chilling potential of mind control and genetic manipulation in the wrong hands. With its heart-pounding action, intricate plotline, and thought-provoking themes, this novel will leave readers questioning the limits of human control and the fragile nature of our freedom.
