This was my first bee sighting of the season. Time to get out there and make sure the garden is ready for them!

Simmering resentment in a small coastal town. A missing manuscript. A dark family secret.

Still suffering nightmares from a case that ended tragically, brilliant detective Scott Drayco considers retiring from crime solving altogether. When a former client bequeaths Drayco a rundown Opera House in a Virginia seaside town, he figures he’ll arrange for a quick sale while nursing his battered soul in a peaceful setting.

What he doesn’t foresee is finding a body on the Opera House stage with a mysterious “G” carved into the man’s chest. With hopes for a quick sale dashed and himself a suspect in the murder, Drayco digs into very old and very dangerous secrets to solve the crime and clear his name.

But to do so, he’ll have to dodge a wary sheriff, hostility over coastal development, and the seductive wife of a town councilman — before tensions explode into more violence and he becomes the next victim.
