Todd's wife has written another book, The Tables. She has a shipment coming soon, but if you want to get a jumpstart of gift buying, they are available on Amazon. Here is a hint at what's inside...
What if the restaurant itself remembered you? Tucked behind an unmarked door, with only a brass plate etched with a single letter, lies the city’s most mysterious dining room. Inside, the air hums with low jazz, velvet drapes hush the world outside, and tables glow like stages under brass pendants. It is not a place for every night. But for the right night—it is church. The place where lives intersect in a restaurant that doesn't just serve meals—it designs memories. Ten Tables. Ten stories. Each night, strangers gather, unaware of their conversations, confessions, and celebrations are being woven into something larger. In The Tables, every table has its moment. Their lives briefly flicker under the same golden glow, each moment tended by Alex, a server who understands that dining is never just about food—it is about memory. On this one extraordinary evening, ten tables are seated, some come to celebrate, some to grieve, some to begin again: a widower facing his first anniversary alone, a family learning to blend, an artist and her son dreaming of the future, old friends raising a glass to the past, a proposal whispered between entrée and dessert, a serial killer and the victim who got away. But when the same tables reappear a year later, the stories have changed, some fractured, some healed, some colliding in ways no one could have predicted. A year later, the diners return, their stories altered by time. Some threads intertwine, others unravel, but the tables remain—the quiet witnesses to love, loss, joy, and chance connection. Lyrical and intimate, The Tables is a novel about the sacred ordinary moments we mark with a meal, and how a single evening can ripple into a lifetime. The Tables is a novel of connection, coincidence, and the unexpected ties that bind us, told with humor, warmth, and a touch of mystery.
