7 - 20: The Aunt Who Came to Dinner

Magnum's private investigator license has expired, and he has the frustrating task of trying to renew it. But he has a welcome surprise when his aunt, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Phoebe Sullivan, pays an unexpected visit to Hawaii from New York. The rather eccentric authoress has just finished writing a new play, but now is convinced that someone is trying to kill her for it, and that they have trailed her to the Islands.
