There are several twists and turns as the plot races towards a conclusion, and the reader can only wait and see whether the police or the criminals will succeed.

Simon Adepetun is visiting Wallasey Village library to talk about his book. The Manchester born has mostly lived in Warrington. He has a degree in English Studies and a Postgraduate certificate in Theatre Studies from the University of Manchester. Working as full time sales manager, Simon enjoys spending quality time with his family and writing. The children’s book is also a treat for the adults where eleven-year-old Daniel Jeremiah Chambers has parents Philip and Susan who love work and shopping and who just don't listen. Daniel is an only child ... no, he's lying ... he has a sister, Alice, who has a dolly fixation; Dan is sure she is an alien. So, Dan has a few problems, none insurmountable, until his friend, Benji, introduces him to the find of the century - a derelict bee hive which could become a den. Of course, such a simple thing is never so simple and when Dan finds a map well, all kinds of things just go horribly wrong. For example - Alice noses her nosey way in and two strange men suddenly turn up wanting what's theirs - and then there's the bank, too. "The Bee Hive" by Simon Adepetun is a tight little sharp-witted bumble through a short period in Dan's young life.
