Before we forget kindness: a novel
(Book)
Description
Café Funiculi Funicula's time-traveling magic continues as new patrons journey to the past, experiencing reunions, making amends and revisiting memories. "Tucked within a small back alley in Tokyo is a café that has been serving carefully brewed coffee for more than one hundred years. The regular patrons know the café's legend by heart: if they follow the rules, they'll be allowed the unique opportunity to travel back in time-- as long as they return to the present before their coffee gets cold. In the next novel in the sensational Before the Coffee Gets Cold Series, the mysterious Tokyo café welcomes four new guests: a father who could not allow his daughter to get married, a woman who couldn't give Valentine's Day chocolates to her loved one, a boy who wants to share his smile with his divorced parents, and a wife holding a child with no name."---
