A young man, torn apart by grief, struggles to forget his past and find his way into adulthood. Living close by, an elderly lady battles her deteriorating mind, trying to hold on to her memories. Serendipity and the elements pull them together in a café trapped in time. Their peculiar relationship blossoms, helping one come to terms with life and love and the other with death and loss.

'Love, Loss & the View from My Window' is Luke's debut novel. This strange and sombre tale was inspired by his experiences with dementia and shame. Luke watched both of his grandmothers suffer from various types of dementia. He was perplexed by the lack of understanding modern medicine can provide. While growing up, he dealt with shame in its various forms. These two factors have been brought together in this book to question the illusion of a 'normal' brain and to celebrate our ability to succeed in light of our shortfalls.

Luke studied as a journalist and has published a small collection of journalist work. He's also a keen climber, devoted husband, and messy chef.
