Dr. Austen Morgan, an Archaeology professor at North Dobson University in Michigan, is conducting research in Port Grace, Malta based on a mysterious reference to a "golden way" found in a seventeenth century Jesuit settlement diary. This discovery leads him to believe that a box, depicted in the diary and potentially filled with riches from Port Grace, may hold the key to his research. With a tight deadline looming for a university-funded project proposal, Austen is determined to secure his dream of a tenured position. During his time in Port Grace, Austen crosses paths with local apiarist Eva Bellacallea, whose family business is gearing up for the town's upcoming honey festival. Despite their initial clashes and Austen's fear of bees due to allergies, the two find themselves drawn to each other as they uncover a hidden fresco that may hold clues to Austen's research. As their professional lives intertwine, Austen and Eva navigate the complexities of their budding romance amidst the challenges of their respective work. With Austen's inevitable return to Michigan on the horizon, their relationship is put to the test by the impact of their shared discoveries and individual ambitions.
