What transformations must we undergo to experience love fully?
Danni is twenty-six, fed up with dating and defeated by the power she perceives men wield over her. Still, she longs for true and abiding love, and so on the advice of a friend she seeks out the services of Raj, a hypnotist.
Raj weighs Danni’s predicament, then leads her into a spell. As he does, a strange humming accompanies his words. An extraordinary, winged creature—a hornet queen—has joined them, he tells her, and with the queen comes hope.
With the hornet’s help, Raj guides Danni into a series of spells: through unexpected inner landscapes where she faces off with a monster and a troubling incarnation of her teenage self. Gradually, she recognizes that Raj is more integral to her quest than she’d imagined—and the queen more potent—and together they soar toward an astonishing future in an unseen world.
With a flair for the uncanny, The Hornet’s Spell offers an erotic and philosophical imagining of our potential for romantic fulfillment.
