About this listen
Like your mysteries as sweet as honey but with a real sting in the tail?
Summer 1921
Posie Parker thought she was about to enjoy a restful summer. But this is no ordinary summer holiday....
When famous explorer Alaric Boynton-Dale disappears, Posie uncovers many dark secrets: an aristocratic family torn apart by hatred, a bizarre murder at an English country house, and a cryptic clue left behind by Alaric which is sweet as honey, but deadlier than poison.
In an action-packed case where simply everyone has a motive for wanting Alaric dead, Posie's investigation starts off in the English Cotswolds, takes her through the glamorous South of France, on to the mysterious island of Ortigia in Italy, and then into the Tombs of the Pharaohs in Egypt.
But is she being followed by a cold-blooded killer? And where has Len, her almost-boyfriend, disappeared to?
This is a classic Golden Age of Crime murder mystery which will appeal to fans of Agatha Christie and Downton Abbey. The Tomb of the Honey Bee is the second book in the delightfully classic English Posie Parker Mystery Series, although the novel can be enjoyed as a standalone story in its own right.
If you love an action-packed historical cozy crime with a feisty protagonist, buy The Tomb of the Honey Bee now.

For instance, how could the author think that bees can bite people? The mind boggles. Bees definitely can't bite as they don't have any teeth. They do have a barbed sting, which they only use in self defence.

The strange phrase "sure as bread is bread" is not one I have ever heard in the English language and is very annoying. Just a couple of the bad things about this novel (and there are many) but I also have to say it is a very light read which doesn't contain any gore or bad language, which is nice in this day and age.
