You see the problems all start when Story's spoiled yet beloved sister Holly needs Story to save her bacon, again. Holly's multimillionaire husband, Max has invited a few colleagues home for the weekend. Flavorists who rub along together like a cats in a hot tub, they need feeding and entertaining, and Story is thrust first in line to handle the details. Good thing they have a passing interest in bees.

During their tour of Story's skeps and honey house, one of Max's employees winds up face first dead in the river and Story finds herself and her family heading up the suspect lineup.

That would be enough to give pause to any boyfriend, let alone one representing the law. Then things take turn for the worse when Story's mother and HER boyfriend decide to look into renting the house next door. It just may be too much for Hunter and Story's relationship to weather, this time.

Book four in Hannah Reed's cute and cozy Queen Bee Mystery series, BEELINE TO TROUBLE revisits the likeable supporting cast of Moraine, Wisconsin. Secrets in the past of characters long-time readers have come to know play a large part in the well-crafted mystery. As usual, Reed weaves the difficult yet amusing dysfunctions of Story's family into her just-intricate-enough plot, keeping her readers well-entertained and satisfied.
