Summary, etc.: | Beekeeper Holly McNee Kensen lives quietly on Sullivan's Island, tending her hives and working at the local island library. Her mother, whom Holly calls The Queen Bee, is a demanding hulk of a woman and a devoted hypochondriac. Holly's sister Leslie married and moved away, wanting little to do with island life. Submerging herself in the lives of the two young boys next door and their widowed father, Archie, Holly's world is upended when Leslie returns and fixates on Archie. As her life spirals downward, Holly is talking to her honey bees a mile a minute, as though they'll give her a solution to all the chaos. -- adapted from jacket |
