Cappuccino Heaven

"My name is Elizabeth Walker. I died at the ripe old age of thirty eight, after a long battle with cancer. I wanted to make forty. I loved cappuccinos, sunshine, and life."

This is the spirit of Elizabeth watching her loved ones from heaven marvelling at the fact she survived. But there’s sadness when she feels the grief of husband Mike and teen daughters Sasha and Lucy. Each trying to deal with such a devastating loss. Yet, life goes on, often painfully, years pass, the children grow and Mike moves on, while Elizabeth finds her way in the afterlife.

Meeting colourful and sassy former hooker Rita changes her spiritual journey forever as she’s introduced to the dark lower levels where she learns to rescue lost souls and bring them to the light. High school friend Emma shows her where astral travellers hang out, a white sandy beach they believe is paradise. While a coffee shop becomes a focal meeting point, a place for Elizabeth to enjoy her favourite, cappuccinos. She learns the hard way there’s more to her spiritual world than she ever imagined wishing her short life had been different, regrets becoming painful. The years do nothing to diminish her love for Mike and her girls who she visits often, in the vain hope of contact.

A story of life and death shadowed by love and grief, light and dark, and hope for the future.
