The Cousins
By Karen M. McManus
Milly, Aubrey, and Jonah Story are cousins, but they barely know each another, and they've never even met their grandmother. Rich and reclusive, she disinherited their parents before they were born. So when they each receive a letter inviting them to work at her island resort for the summer, they're surprised . . . and curious.
Their parents are all clear on one point--not going is not an option. This could be the opportunity to get back into Grandmother's good graces. But when the cousins arrive on the island, it's immediately clear that she has different plans for them. And the longer they stay, the more they realize how mysterious--and dark--their family's past is.
The entire Story family has secrets. Whatever pulled them apart years ago isn't over--and this summer, the cousins will learn everything.

Cousins by Karen McManus is a book about three cousins Milly, Aubrey, and Jonah Story. They get a letter from their rich mysterious grandma that they know nothing about and have never met to come work at her resort for the summer, and all their parents agree one thing they have to go! When they get there they all realize the whole Story family has secrets and now is their chance to find out what separated their family all those years ago. I love the way every chapter is from a different persons perspective and even every now and then a flash back from when their parents were younger and still on the island. With surprises around every corner its hard to put the book down. Cousins is a really good book for ages 12 and up and people who like mystery books.
