书籍简介
在一个远离维多利亚时代伦敦喧嚣的安静村庄，希尼·希尔切斯特过着隐居者的生活，他有两个爱好：独处和蜂蜜。只有当他的蜂蜜储备不足时，他才会放弃前者。但在某日，他的蜂蜜供应商被发现死亡，死因是受到了她养的蜂群的攻击。希尼被迫踏上寻找新的蜂蜜供应商的路途，他在这过程中认识了麦考夫特先生---一个退休后在苏塞克斯郡从事养蜂人这一职业的聪明人，他与伟大的侦探夏洛克·福尔摩斯有许多相似之处。当听说村里另一位养蜂人的惨死后，麦考夫特先生本人对破案并不陌生，他立即察觉到了这场谋杀背后的血腥手段。但是，哪个恶棍会有如此疯狂的智慧来训练一支杀人蜜蜂大军？在希尼的帮助下，麦考夫特开始了一场危及生命的调查，寻找这起邪恶的罪行的肇事者。
In a quiet village far from the noise of Victorian London, Sydney Silchester lives the life of a recluse led by two passions: privacy and honey. He gives up the former only when his stores of the latter run low. But when his honey supplier is found stung to death by her hive, the search for a new beekeeper takes Sydney to Mr. Mycroft, a brilliant man who has retired to Sussex to take up precisely this occupation, and who shares many traits with the great detective, Sherlock Holmes. Upon hearing of the tragic death of the village's other beekeeper, Mycroft, himself no stranger to crime-solving, immediately senses the bloody hand of murder. But what villain would have the mad intelligence to train an army of killer bees? With Sydney at his side, Mycroft embarks on a life-threatening search for the perpetrator of this most diabolical crime.

The English social historian and author of science and mystery fiction Henry Fitzgerald Heard (1889-1971) was born in London, studied at Cambridge University, then turned to writing essays and books on historical, scientific, religious, mystical, cultural, and social subjects, signing them Gerald Heard, the name under which all his non-fiction appeared. He moved to the United States in 1937, accompanied by his friend Aldous Huxley, and soon afterwards founded a college to teach meditation and other spiritual practices. Mr. Mycroft appeared in two additional novels by Heard: Reply Paid (1942) and The Notched Hairpin (1949). Among Heards other science fiction and mystery novels, perhaps his best-known work is the short story The President of the U. S. A., Detective, which won the first prize in Ellery Queens Mystery Magazines contest in 1947.
