Used. Mass Market Paperback. Dorothea Benton Frank invites us back to Sullivan's Island for a buzzy family comedy where domestic drama is bound to sting. When a hypochondriacal mother, a runaway sister, and a quiet beekeeper all fixate on the handsome widower next door, the local gossip gets sweeter than honey. Frank delivers a warm, witty Lowcountry tale packed with matriarchal menace, sibling rivalry, and a dash of mystery that keeps you guessing. It is a delightfully human portrait of coastal chaos that proves family affairs are always the hardest to hive off.
