he Music of Bees is Spokane native Eileen Garvin s first novel, but its initial inspiration is rooted in her adopted home in Oregon. A few years ago Garvin, a beekeeping hobbyist, bought a package of bees from a local farmer to replace her hive that died the previous year. It was around dusk, and Garvin was tooling along a small road in the small town to pick up the bees when she passed a striking image. And that picture immediately turned into the first line of the book, slated for release at the end of April. Jacob Stevenson had the tallest mohawk in the history of Hood River Valley High School.
