Got the E-book, Can't Download
Let me expand on this. I technically DID download the E-book, but apparently I didn't pay attention and didn't save the file, just opened it.

Males look a lot like wasps.
So you could have found a drone. Don't give up then! Where there are males, queens must be around too!
