Especially when one of them wont stop humming.\n\n1954, the South Pacific islands. When Beatriz Hanlon agreed to accompany her missionary husband Max to a remote island, she knew there would be challenges. But it isnt just the heat and the damp and the dirt. There are more insects than she could ever have imagined, and the islanders are strangely hostile. And then there are the awful noises coming from the church at night.\n\nYet as the months go by, Bea slowly grows accustomed to life on the island. That is until an unexpected and interminably humming guest arrives, and the couples claustrophobic existence is stretched to breaking point.\n\nEvents draw to a terrible climax, and Bea watches helplessly as her husbands guilt drives him into madness. Its not long before Bea finds herself fighting for her freedom and her life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fig Tree","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45657636143157,"sku":"ByrdShop_0241320615","price":48.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780241320617_6b18b282-5bac-4481-b008-bdd2287e50e4.jpg?v=1782539158","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/things-bright-and-beautiful-0000241320615","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
