Beggar Bee Nameless follows Deceased Affairs officer Shane Ellis' investigation to uncover the name of a recently deceased beggar. The reader will be immersed in the life of the 'Nameless' and his unlikely companionship with fellow vagabond, the fierce and enigmatic Gracie. Product of an abusive childhood, she is convinced that a homeless life is the only life worth living and has found the means to survive through her principles known as the Beggar's Code. Shane's investigation allows her to overcome her own loss in a tale of grief, love and redemption and, ultimately, poses fundamental questions for us all about what it means to have a home.
Beggar Bee Nameless is an enlightening humanisation of homeless life. It provides a unique understanding from the perspective of characters that, for one reason or another, have found themselves un-homed. Readers will discover a simultaneously heart-warming and heart-breaking account of homelessness and will be provoked to explore a different perspective and reconsider the place of homeless people within society. Philosophising and abrasive, this novel is transparent and provides a refreshingly honest insight into one of society's greatest failings.
