"Murder Under A Honey Moon is a thrilling crime mystery novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat!" -Readers' Favorite. Mona Moon and her new husband, Robert Farley, Duke of Brynelleth, are on their honeymoon at last. They have just boarded the RMS Majesty ocean liner.

After a romantic evening of dancing until the wee hours of the night, Mona and Robert discover their suite has been ransacked and Mona's jewelry, supposedly secured in their stateroom, has been stolen. Mona is horrified, as some of the jewelry belongs to the Brynelleth Estate and were cherished pieces of Robert's mother. The ship's crew searches the ocean liner, and a gold brooch turns up in a bartender's cabin. It is the same bartender who served Mona earlier in the evening.

"GOLD MEDAL WINNER Death By A HoneyBee is an enjoyable read which will capture the interest of most die-hard mystery fans!" -Readers' Favorite "Abigail Keam writes with vision and understanding. Keam leaves the reader yearning for more." -Midwest Book Review Josiah Reynolds is a beekeeper trying to stay financially afloat by selling honey at the farmers' market. She finds her world turned upside down when a man is found dead in her bee yard, only to discover the victim is her nemesis. The police are calling the brutal death murder and Josiah is the number one suspect! Fighting an unknown enemy in the glamorous world of Thoroughbreds, oak-cured bourbon, and antebellum mansions, Josiah struggles to uncover the truth in a land that keeps its secrets well. Josiah faces the world with sarcastic humor and a number of quirky, oddball friends that can only be found in the Bluegrass town of Lexington, the heart of Kentucky horse country. Some mysteries end with a bang, some are not solved at all and the first one ends with a cliff hanger, but they always entertain in the sassy, humorous, and suspenseful world as Josiah goes about sleuthing. Like Agatha Christie's Miss Marple, Josiah observes the world about her and solves even the must troubling cases. Death By A HoneyBee is the first of an episodic series and as such ends in a cliff-hanger which is crucial to the rest of the series. Attached to HoneyBee is a bonus chapter from Death By Drowning which continues our heroine's story in linear time. I hope you enjoy reading Death By A HoneyBee as much as I have enjoyed writing it. It was a labor of love.

FIVE STARS by READERS' FAVORITE!"Abigail Keam's sleuth mystery novel, Death By Stalking, brings the English cozy mystery home to Kentucky's Bluegrass in a most delightful way. Keam gives the new reader enough background information within the story for it to be enjoyed as a standalone, but you won't want to miss a single book in the Josiah Reynolds Mystery series. Keam's characters are well defined and credible, and her plot fairly bristles with red herrings for the armchair sleuth to consider while reading. Death By Stalking: A Josiah Reynolds Mystery is most highly recommended." If you like female sleuths who are snarky, brassy, and fun, you'll love Josiah solving murder mysteries along with her quirky friends in the glamorous Bluegrass where Thoroughbreds race, bourbon is oak-cured, and antebellum mansions keep their secrets well. Josiah, Baby, her mastiff, and Lady Elsmere rush to the rescue of their neighbor, Rosie, who is being harassed by Gage Cagle, a mean, old stump of a man. Lady Elsmere confronts Gage and has him thrown in jail for trying to extort money from Rosie. Glad to be rid of this loathsome man, Lady Elsmere, Josiah, and Rosie attend the Bluegrass Antique Auction and Ball. To their surprise, Gage shows up and boldly threatens Josiah, Rosie, and even Baby. Dismissing Gage as nothing more than a loudmouth fussbucket, Josiah enjoys the ball until she stumbles upon Rosie covered in blood and standing over Gage's near lifeless body. "I didn't do this," Rosie swears before fleeing, leaving Josiah trying to save the life of a man they both detest. While Josiah attempts to staunch Gage's bleeding, she can't help but wonder, if Rosie didn't assault Gage, then who?
