Murder by Puffins (Donna Andrews)

Summary:
Meg Langslow is at it again. She and her new boyfriend, Michael, go to her aunt's house on a small island in Maine or somewhere, thinking that they will have a nice, quiet getaway. Instead, they get seasick on the boat thanks to a hurricane off the coast that just won't go away, and when they finally hit land and go to the aunt's house, they find not only Aunt Phoebe herself, but Meg's parents and brother as well. Meg and Michael try to get some relaxation (and avoid doing a million chores) by going out for a walk, but instead they find a local artist dead.

Thoughts:
Good story. Well written once again. It's a fun series, and I definitely plan on keeping up with it. Though around every turn, you do start wishing Meg could just get a break, and get some time without her crazy relatives... Though they are one of the best things about the book, so it's kind of a toss up.
