But when a phony beekeeper shows up and sprays toxic smoke at the guests, the party erupts in chaos. Worse yet, a shot rings out and Osgood Claxton III, candidate for state legislature, falls to the ground--dead. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHolly Burns, the gallery owner who asked Theodosia to cater the tea, is understandably heartbroken. A man is dead, her guests are angry and injured, and the paintings that were on display are left in tatters. When the police don't seem to have a clue, when old-line politicos don't want questions asked, Holly begs Theodosia to run a shadow investigation and help restore her gallery's good name. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBetween hosting a \u003ci\u003eWind in the Willows\u003c\/i\u003e Tea and a Glam Girl Tea, Theodosia questions everyone that had a bone to pick with Claxton. This includes Booker, an angry outsider artist; Lamar Lucket, Claxton's political opponent; and Mignon Merriweather, the dead man's soon-to-be ex-wife. But the investigation becomes a political hot potato following a second murder, the revelation of a messy affair, a chase through a swamp, and a vandalized shop.","brand":"Berkley Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47983365324989,"sku":"BS-TC0-200971","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/9767\/2637\/files\/9780593200971-HD.jpg?v=1786566884","url":"https:\/\/boundigo.com\/products\/honey-drop-dead","provider":"Boundigo Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
