It\u2019s been badly stung, but the bees aren\u2019t at fault: This is homicide. The hounds recruit the help of their Druid, Atticus O\u2019Sullivan, and the Tasmanian police to track down the killer in the interest of a reward\u2014but this time, they want more than food and justice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><i>Grist of Bees<\/i>, by Delilah S. Dawson writing as Lila Bowen, follows Rhett Walker, who has given up his destiny as the monster-hunting Shadow to settle down with his beloved Sam.

And up until now, it has been her mission to kill those killers, to remove them from the pattern so that they may not murder again. But now, after a death that may not have been deserved, she\u2019s left rudderless, without plan or purpose, until a woman with a strange power of her own takes her in and gives her a new mission\u2014<i>and<\/i>\u00a0a new target.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s very exciting, and we hope you like it.<\/p>\n<p>This time around, we have a limited print edition through Subterranean Press, <a href=\"https:\/\/subterraneanpress.com\/death-and-honey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">which you can order from them directly<\/a> in a signed, numbered edition &#8212; or in a leatherbound signed edition, ooh fancy.<\/p>\n<p>Or you can grab it in <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2tGQwig\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">eBook<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2tDwEwB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">audio<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For my part in it,\u00a0<strong>Interlude: Tanager<\/strong> takes the character of Wren and puts her on a journey set between the fifth and sixth books of the Miriam Black series (<strong>The<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Raptor &amp; The Wren\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0<strong>Vultures<\/strong>, respectively).
