Meg and Michael are hosting the cast of the play he's directing. A bit of a feud between the English and Drama departments is triggering some antics, including some nasty vandalizing. A troop of reenactors camping in the woods adds to the complications. Then the annoying director that has been filming all the going-ons is killed, and the family goes on the hunt for the killer.
This is the 29th book in the series. I would highly recommend starting from the beginning.
The house and woods are full of characters. This summer Michael is working on the play MacBeth.
I found this book very slow. It was not like her previous books in the series.
