When Beck Wise vanished his girlfriend Melissa Makepeace poured herself into caring for the family farm, silently absorbing yet another man disappearing from her life.

What had happened to Beck? Where did her father go?

How can she keep the farm together? With gorgeous descriptions, deft characterizations and a page-turning plot,Mad Honeyimmerses the reader in a search for truth bounded by the everyday magic of beekeeping, of family and of finding peace, all while asking how much we really understand the natural world.
