I'm referring to the third beat of the bar.
I'm wondering what the author means with that stem which connects the F 
in second voice to the beam in first voice.

Yes, you are right: they are sharing the same notehead.
But I think it's wrong: only one voice can play that note.
Probably the author should have used a (spacer) rest in first voice?

Sorry, I don't have any education in musical notation, my explanations 
will sound weird
