But when Bailey's grandmother’s infamous \"Honey I'm Home\" hot spiced honey turns out to “bee” the murder weapon and her granny is now the prime suspect, Bailey has no choice but to use her fictional detective skills to help solve the murder and \"smoke out\" the real culprit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith the help of Bailey’s witty bestie, a pair of meddling aunts, the feisty members of The Hive, and her computer-savvy daughter, this amateur sleuth is determined to solve the case.
