Eloise Parker, a solo-living schoolteacher, has a tenant named Adam Clay residing in her garage. Clay used to work for a secret group called “Beekeepers,” but now enjoys a peaceful life as an actual beekeeper. Eloise Parker sadly loses over 2 million dollars, most of it from a charity she oversees, after falling for a scam. Heartbroken, she takes her own life.
