Maggy Thorsen's heart, uncharacteristically, is swelling with optimism. Sure, her original Brookhills coffeehouse, Uncommon Grounds, was destroyed in a freak early May blizzard. But all seems perfectly poised for the grand re-opening of UG in a quaint Brookhills railroad station. Perfect, that is, until event manager JoLynne Penn-Williams makes a surprise appearance as a corpse in Maggy's publicity piece de resistance -- a giant inflatable Uncommon Grounds coffee cup.
