Add to basketPaperback. Despite living in the same three-flat house in the suburbs of London, the residents are strangers to one another. The bottom floor is home to Tam, a recent ex-cop who spends his days drowning his sorrows in whisky. On the middle floor is Nick, a young man with Asperger's who likes to stick to his schedules and routines. The top floor belongs to Karen, a doctor and researcher who has spent her life trying to understand the rising rates of autism. They have lived their lives separately, until now, when an unsolved murder and the man on the middle floor connect them all together. Told from three points of view, The Man on the Middle Floor is about disconnection in all its forms; sexual, physical, parental and emotional. It questions whether society is meeting the needs of the fast growing autistic section of society, or exacerbating it. Thought-provoking and thrilling, The Man on the Middle Floor will leave readers talking. AUTHOR: Elizabeth S. Moore has worked as a journalist since she won the Decanter Young Wine Writer of the Year at seventeen. She has written columns and articles on restaurants, politics, South Africa and all things foodie. She comes from a family that has given her a lot of writing material and is currently finishing her second book, having written the first after completing the Faber Write a Novel course and being approached by fourteen agents after reading an excerpt of her novel to industry professionals. Elizabeth lives in London with her South African husband and has three daughters and a son as well as two lazy Labradors. A gripping tale of interlocking yet disconnected lives Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

In a three-flat house on Staverton Road, three lives intersect: Tam, an ex-cop battling his demons; Nick, a young man with Asperger’s clinging to rigid routines; and Karen, a doctor consumed by her autism research. Strangers under one roof, their worlds collide when an unsolved murder exposes the fragility of their carefully constructed realities.
As their lives intertwine, The Man on the Middle Floor delves into the complexities of mental health, social isolation, and the desperate search for connection. Will they find solace in each other, or will their own inner turmoil lead to further destruction? A thought-provoking thriller for readers seeking suspenseful, character-driven stories set against the backdrop of a modern, disconnected world.
