Publisher's Summary

From Australia's favourite storyteller with new novel Before the Storm out now.

In the ashes of her marriage, she finds the truth about his past and the courage to start again in . . .The Last Paradise.

Grace has the perfect life: a job she loves, a beautiful daughter and a rich, successful husband. But one night, when their world falls apart in a shocking disaster, Grace suddenly sees what she couldn't admit - her marriage and her husband are a fraud.

With the life she knew in tatters, she takes an assignment promoting the launch of a unique luxury hotel, hidden in a stunning, untouched oasis in the heart of tourist-crazed Bali.

Here, in this last paradise, Grace gathers the strength to take charge of her world. And, inspired by a woman's story from long ago, she discovers a path to a future she'd never dared to imagine . . .

Great story, annoying narrator

Not my favorite Di Morrissey book but very enjoyable. Unfortunately the narrators ‘snobby’ voice affected the warmth of the characters.

probably the worst narrated book so far

I did give it a go because I do like Di Morrissey's books and if I could get used to the narrator I may have persisted longer...however this actress was probably the worst I ever heard. The book is written by an Australian writer, story plays in Australia, narrated by an Australian actress yet she sounds like she was narrating a 19th Century book written by an English governess. It is terrible. I think I stop here, let's just say i was disappointed.

entertaining story, reading annoying

The reader makes the characters sound like they are always surprised and confused about the conversations. But the story is quite good.

Disappointing

I am a fan of Di Morrissey but I found this tedious and the main character weak and insipid. I could not finish it.

Loved the story, great listening

Informative, well researched, happy, frustrating exhilarating. Loved the way the story panned out, the relations in family and friends and that the good guys succeeded!

Great read

Good to see a woman play the dirty tricks back on the guy. The mind games are so prevalent in today’s society.
