The form Exp[k*s]/s gives a step or cutoff function ( sometimes 
atributed to Heavyside).
One method is to break it into a series and integrate the series:

f[s_] = Normal[Series[(1/s) * (Tanh[Pi*s/2]), {s, 0, 30}]]
g[t_] = InverseLaplaceTransform[f[s], s, t]

The result is in DiracDelta function derivatives in even terms.
