A man is trapped in a strange room, strapped to a bed—while DC Nasreen Maqsood desperately scours London to find him . . .
Daniel Rose finds himself in a confusing and terrifying predicament after awakening in an unfamiliar place, physically restrained. He is soon introduced to a beautiful, intimidating woman who calls herself the Queen Bee and refers to Danny as one of her workers. But what exactly does that mean and what does she want with him? Meanwhile, Detective Constable Nasreen Maqsood gets assigned to Danny’s missing persons case. Not only does she want to crack it so she can prove to her male superiors that she’s right for the job; she also wants to find Danny because they used to be old school friends.
Meanwhile, still trapped, Danny starts to realise there are other bees in the bunker—new ones and ones who are coming to the end of their usefulness. What happens to a bee taken to C Wing? What happens when your time is up? Nasreen has no idea what she’s up against, and for Daniel, the clock is ticking . . .
