Mind Your Own BeesWax by Hannah Reed

I fear I'm beginning to sound like a broken record, but I'll take my chances....

I LOVE THIS SERIES!!

Mind Your Own Beeswax (A Queen Bee Mystery)The second book in the "Queen Bee" mysteries, Mind Your Own BeesWax by Hannah Reed is a great follow up to last year's debut Buzz Off!



In addition to being an amateur beekeeper and local store owner, Story Fischer also teaches classes on candlemaking.

Buzz Off (A Queen Bee Mystery)When an old high-school classmate shows up at one of her sessions, Story is surprised to say the least.  When they were seniors, Lauren Kerrigan was sent to jail for drunk driving and subsequently running over and killing the town's Police Chief.

Released from jail because she is suffering from cancer, this is Lauren's first time back since the accident.  When she is later found dead, along with a local townswoman people refer to as "The Witch", the residents of Moraine are wondering if she was killed for revenge.  But where does the murder of Hetty (the witch) fit in?

Story and her friends are about to find out.


Packed with interesting tips on bee-keeping and honey, the "Queen Bee" series is a fantastic mix of fact and fiction.
With plenty of fun characters, including "Pity Party" Patti (P.P. Patti), and Dinky, the widower Norm's mangy dog, you'll be reading non-stop until you get to the last satisfyingly sweet page!
