Beekeeper's Promise, The

Barbara Williford

The Beekeeper’s promise is parallel storylines. Abi is currently living in 2017, a recently widowed woman who is battling finding herself and security after a domestic abuse situation.

Elaine is a character of the past, living in Nazi occupied France trying to support her family and helping the resistance.

The two world’s collide when they meet each other towards the end of the book when they both find peace with their life. Although the book is about two strong women, the parallel storylines have absolutely nothing to do with each other hence the reason for the lower rating. The book could have been a strong narrative without Abi’s story. I have no idea why that was even added.
