A Hollywood power couple and their handsome yet troubled groundskeeper descend into a tragic love triangle in this “existential contemporary noir” (Necessary Fiction).

Ezra Fog works as a live-in groundskeeper for movie producer Grant Hudson and his wife, the film star Sybil Harper. But the only movies Ezra truly cares about are the ones he makes himself—of beautiful hummingbirds. It seems nothing could capture Ezra’s attention like those fascinating creatures, until the magnetic Sybil sets her sights on him. Soon, he is drawn in by her irresistible beauty and power. And that’s when Grant approaches Ezra with his own proposal—to monitor Sybil and find out if she’s having an affair.

Ezra is in no position to refuse either of his employers, and that puts him in a dangerous—if not deadly—situation. In The Hummingbirds, Ross McMeekin captures three indelible characters, each yearning for deep connections in a shallow world defined by the twin obsessions of power and beauty. It is a story of love and redemption, of murder and betrayal, and of the darkness that lurks in the heart of Hollywood.
