The Beekeeper's Bad Day (Paperback)

Paperback. Ben Perkins wanted a quiet life. Bees. Honey. A rundown farm in rural Indiana and enough isolation to avoid people asking questions about his military record or his failed marriage.It was going pretty well right up until somebody tried to shoot him in his own field.Now there's a dead man at his feet, a detective from Chicago asking questions, missing millions nobody can explain, and his own father thinks he's guilty. Ben doesn't know what's going on, which would probably bother him more if people would stop trying to kill him long enough to think about it.Unfortunately for everybody involved, Ben spent years professionally solving problems with violence.The deeper he gets pulled into the mess, the worse it becomes: crooked cops, hired killers, a wife who may not be as dead as advertised, and enough buried secrets to get half the county embalmed.Somewhere in all of it is the truth.Darkly funny, lean, and loaded with sharp dialogue and sudden violence, The Beekeeper's Bad Day blends rural noir, deadpan humor, and hard-edged suspense into a thriller where everybody is lying, nobody is safe, and the beekeeper may be the last man anyone should have cornered.
