Cafe Heaven: An Autobiography of the Afterlife
by Linda Thomas-Sundstrom

Route 66, once America's most famous road west, has become America's most haunted highway. Littered with ghostly travelers, towns, automobiles, and phantom auto wrecks, it is said to be a stretch of road that refuses to die. Henry Smith, vacuum cleaner salesman and "regular guy" doesn't know about the rumors as he leaves the highway in search of a shortcut to his next appointment. He hasn't been warned about phantom lights, nor that the diner he is about to stumble into might just be something else. Henry Smith is about to look Murphy's Law right in the eye as he heads his Chevrolet toward a big blue neon in the dark. He is about to straddle the ride to end all rides, and confront questions that have plagued mankind for centuries. Henry Smith is about to become the most confused enlightened soul in the history of the world. And we're invited to come along with a front-row seat.

Linda Thomas-Sundstrom's Bio

Linda Thomas-Sundstrom is a native of California, where she lives with her husband and teaches at a major California University.

Writing on every slip of paper and napkin since she was a kid, Linda’s friends finally, and only recently, convinced her to send something to an agent, who, it turned out, loved her stuff. The result is that she is now writing more often, has cut back slightly on her teaching schedule, and has a book being considered for television.

Linda writes in the genres of fantasy and romance, and at the moment has two more books in the works in the paranormal romance genre. She prefers reading and writing dark historicals, with plenty of gothic-style atmosphere, but on a challenge from an editor is finding light contemporary paranormal also a kick to write.

Linda prefers small cars, wide open spaces, mountain vistas, and lots of trees. She has a newly-built house in the country, a fondness for British travel (she has been a Britain travel specialist and guide, and teases of having driven on almost every single road in England, Scotland, and Wales), and yes, Linda was a Buffy fan.

Called gothic, dark, atmospheric, sophisticated, spell-binding, delicious and even yummy, Linda’s writing might just incite your passion for the paranormal.
