Complete story — includes the ending
Testing to learn the cause of Colony collapse disorder (CCD), USDA employee Everett Keck visits Belinda's honey farm. Keck and her bees die from cyanide in his smoker. AgriNext might be behind CCD in Northeast USA. AgriNext's company executive denies murder, saying that they had been ready to counter Keck's accusations by discrediting him. Belinda's neighbor, Darryl Jarvis, had filed a complaint that Keck poisoned his bee hives with deadly mites. Jarvis actually murdered Keck. Mites did appear wherever Keck inspected hives. Keck's supervisor, Calvin Barnes, had been investigating him. This ceased once Barnes became an invalid after being poisoned. However, Keck has an alibi. Before Keck's bee-killing, CCD and academic research funding were decreasing; if CCD apparently increases, funding would rise. Meanwhile, Tara and Griffin Parker are married professors of agriculture organizing an apiary conference. Sheikh Nasser Al-Fayed, of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) royal family, will attend. The Parkers lured Nasser to the United States by manufacturing a rising CCD crisis through Keck and kidnap Nasser. Later, Nasser is on a plane (ransom paid). With the UAE's denials, there can be no kidnap charges. Proof appears that Tara was having an affair with Keck. Furious, Griffin turns on Tara, who was there when he poisoned Barnes.
