A staged caper based on Murder on the Orient Express is interrupted by a real-life killer in this mystery featuring coffee shop owner Maggy Thorsen. Maggy Thorsen, co-owner of gourmet coffeehouse Uncommon Grounds, is thrilled to be leaving behind the cold winter weather of Wisconsin for sunny South Florida. In town to attend the annual crime-writers' conference with her beau, Sheriff Jake Pavlik, Maggy maintains that she's just along for the rideno amateur sleuthing involved. But Maggy must break her pledge to behave solely as a tourist when the conference's opening night event turns out to be a re-enactment of Agatha Christie's classic, Murder on the Orient Express. As Maggy and Jake reluctantly set off on the night train to the Everglades to solve the ';crime', it soon becomes clear that, just like in the original novel, nothing is quite what it seems....
It’s November and Maggy Thorsen, co-owner of the Wisconsin gourmet coffeehouse, Uncommon Grounds, is in South Florida at an annual crime-writers’ conference with her beau, local sheriff Jake Pavlik, who is due to speak as a ‘forensics expert’.
Maggy’s pledge to behave solely as a tourist becomes trickier than she anticipated when the conference’s opening night event turns out to be a re-enactment of Agatha Christie’s classic, Murder on the Orient Express. As Maggy and Jake reluctantly set off on the night train to the Everglades to solve the ‘crime’, it’s clear that, as in the original novel, nothing is quite what it seems. And amidst rumours of careers taken, manuscripts stolen and vows broken, it seems that in the Everglades – as in life – the predator all too often becomes the prey.
