Bee-Plague and the Alamogordo HoneyMoon:

During the period of Ella's employment, the threatened bee-mite plague has indeed killed all of Hive-Maker's other bees, while the Mesopotamian bees have flourished, a fact which Ella and her new paramour Zoltan Abbassid celebrate by marrying. The two suddenly depart England, leaving Hive-Maker behind, and make their way to a honeymoon among the cowboys of Alamogordo, New Mexico.
