Welcome to the Waystation, a place where time has no meaning. Consider this your first stop after exiting your life. Everyone passes through on their way to one place or the other (if you know what I mean). People die every day. They choose a life of crime, love the wrong person, see things they shouldn't, or maybe they simply grow old. There's no escaping it. Death comes to us all eventually, so there's no point in running. But be encouraged; death is not the end. Behind every death there's a story of life, love, and sometimes tragedy. I'd like you to meet Cara, Rachel, Tony, Marco, Sarah, Samuel, Loreli and Wren...this is their story. Come on in and I'll tell you all about them. Sit down and have a piece of pecan pie and a cup of coffee or, maybe a glass of sweet tea. We've got sandwiches if you're hungry. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, just ignore that nasty smelling mist you see creeping along the ground. And don't worry about the screams, they're not here for you. In a cross between hard crime fiction and a spiritual parable, The Waystation takes you on an odyssey from the darkness of this world, to the serenity of the afterlife. It carries you from the ugliness of the drug business, racism, abuse, and murder, to the joy that comes when all that ceases to matter. Existing as a stopping point on the journey between life and death, the Waystation is a place to rest and prepare for your real life to begin.
