  🐝 When the body of a prominent land developer is found in the apiary of Hazel's Homestead Honey, beekeeper Hazel Bloom finds herself in a sticky situation. The victim, who was trying to buy up local farms for a controversial resort, died from a suspiciously precise allergic reaction—not from bee stings, but from a peanut-laced honey sample meant for Hazel. With the police buzzing around her farm and her business on the verge of collapse, Hazel must use her knowledge of local botany and human nature to find the real killer. With help from her loyal border collie, Clover, and an unexpected alliance with a retired forensic botanist, Hazel uncovers a hive of secrets among her fellow farmers and townspeople. From contaminated crops and sabotaged hives to long-buried family feuds, the truth is as complex as her bees' honeycomb. Can Hazel solve the case before the killer delivers another fatal sting?

  Violet Hunter consults Holmes after being offered a governess job subject to a number of unusual conditions, including cutting her hair short. The wage is extremely high, £120, and she decides to accept the job, though Holmes tells her to contact him if she needs to.

Holmes discovers that someone had been kept prisoner in the wing, but when Holmes, Watson and Hunter enter, it is empty. They are accused of freeing the prisoner, who was the daughter of Hunter's employer, who sets his dog on them, though it attacks him instead. It is revealed that Hunter had been hired to impersonate her employer's daughter so that her fiancé would believe she was no longer interested in seeing him, but the daughter had escaped and the pair later married.

As a colonel at the U.S. Army War College warns them, combining such signals with targeted social media could prove more profound to the future of global warfare than even nuclear weapons. 
  From London, Northern Virginia and Maryland, to Cuba and Honduras, the team pursues the scientists and operatives hell-bent on launching and winning the next world war. As the final seconds tick down, Blum must pit his mental strength against that of the Cube itself, knowing he might die in the process.
