The hive
(Book)

In the Pacific Northwest, police officer Lindsay Jackman is investigating the murder of a young journalist. Lindsay learns the victim was writing an exposé on a charismatic wellness guru. Marnie Spellman 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. 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.
