When Beth's marriage ends, she's determined to build a new life in the country for herself and her children. A quiet life lived closer to nature. She thinks she's achieved the impossible - a civilised divorce, a happy home and a cordial relationship with her ex-husband Mark. There's even a potential new love on the horizon. But when Mark tries to change the rules, Beth's peaceful world is shattered. At the same time Beth discovers that European wasps have invaded her garden. Her obsession with them and their queen holds up a distorted mirror to the human drama. As the chaos in her life gathers momentum, connections between the two worlds come sharply into focus. It becomes clear that the lives of Beth and the others are neither safe from, nor separate to the natural world.
