Publisher's Summary

Scarred by fire from infancy, with a persistent stammer, Charlotte has always been in the shadow of her glamorous theatrical parents. So it's a shock when her mother commits suicide. Left to care for her sick father in the dark maze of her childhood home, Charlotte begins to unravel. First, there's the mysterious arrival of a box of dead bees. Then buzzing noises in the attic. People are watching her. Listening to her. Everyone thinks she's losing her mind. But an old photo suggests another, more sinister possibility....

silly

No spoilers, just, what an over the top silly book. Russians, corporate espionage, a mad person with a bee obsession, potential gaslighting, abuse, it was... a lot. It didn't come together well, and all of the characters were kind of awful, either comically villainous, or, in the case of the protagonist, useless and a bit thick. The ending was unsatisfying, although it did tie everything up.
It was too much.
