Before the Coffee Gets Cold: Tales from the Cafe

How far would we go to see – perhaps for the last time – the ones we love?

From the author of Before the Coffee Gets Cold comes a story of four new customers each of whom is hoping to take advantage of Cafe Funiculi Funicula’s time-travelling offer.  The beautiful tale tells the story of people who must face up to their past, in order to move on with their lives.

We are introduced to:

The man who goes back to see his best friend who died 22 years ago
The son who was unable to attend his own mother’s funeral
The man who travelled to see the girl who he could not marry
The old detective who never gave his wife that gift . . .

The incredibly designed relationship map of characters is a keep sake. 

 

There  are rules they must stick to.

Sit in the right seat

Accept the coffee poured
