Today I’m asking Suzanne Moore 5 questions about her latest book!

1. What’s the name of your latest book – and how hard was it to pick a title?
The Place Between. The title evolved on its own over time. I can’t quite remember when I settled on the title. It was a working title and I played around with a couple of others but they didn’t feel right so this is the one that stuck. It felt like it captured the essence of what was going on in the story.
2. If you could choose anyone from any time period, who would you cast as the leads in your latest book?
I think Diana Rigg would have made a great Sarah. For Beryl? Betty White, all the way.
Who wouldn’t want Grace Kelly to play one of their characters? I think she would make a great Lillian.
3. What five words best describe your story?
Mysterious. Unsettling. Loving. Emotive. Touching.
4. Who is your favourite fictional team/couple?
Max Smart and 99. They bring me straight back to my childhood and I still find the show funny. Just hearing the opening music to Get Smart makes me smile. I remember lying on my stomach in our lounge room when I was quite small, recording it for my Dad on Betamax tapes. I would have to pause recording during the ad breaks and then remember to start again as soon as they were finished.
5. What song reflects a theme, character, relationship or scene in your book?
It would have to be Gary Jules’s version of Mad World. The lyrics, “all around me are familiar faces…” makes me think of how, in the story, two people can see the same thing but they a completely different meaning, with completely different consequences.
About The Place Between
A lost mother, a forgotten past and three generations bound by hidden memories… History doesn’t always tell the truth.
