About this listen

On the surface, current affairs reporter Nicola Harvey has the world at her feet - she's at the top of her profession, part of Australian television's celebrity A-list, has a wealthy, successful fiancé and a beautiful warehouse conversion in Adelaide.

But appearances can be deceiving and not all is perfect in Nicola's world. So when her boss offers to send her on an extended research trip to investigate the effects of the drought, she jumps at the chance to indulge in some country-style relaxation.

When Nicola arrives in the little town of Nowhere Else, nothing is as she expected: there's no spa in town, the locals are tight-lipped, and she senses it's not just the drought that is making the town nervous. So why has her boss sent her out here? The deeper Nicola digs into the town's history, the more she realises coming to Nowhere Else wasn't a mistake after all. In fact, it may just unlock the mystery of her own past - and hold the key to her future happiness.

Loved it

This is another great book. I loved the slowness of the book and really understanding why they were who they were. I hope there is a sequel. I’d love to see how their lives pan out within the small country town when the secrets are exposed. They will need to be for them all to continue to live their lives.

So convoluted!

I have read/listened to most of Fiona McCallum’s stories and I’m afraid Nowhere Else is not one I enjoyed overly much.

It took a long time to get into the book and even then, the story was very slow. The main character, Nicola was generally likeable but at times she was very annoying. Her love story was a very complicated ride, one that was not resolved until literally, the very last minute —a resolution that could only work for the two lovers with one particular circumstance...and sure enough...
I worked out very early on what had to happen so that the lovers could be together.

The ending was very abrupt and left me more than a little dissatisfied. I definitely felt there needed to be an epilogue.

Rather ho-hum. If you haven’t read /listened to Fiona McCallum before, I recommend you start with another title. Jennifer Vuletic’s narration is excellent.
