โœฆ Synopsis


Faye Reading has sacrificed her career to be a good mother and wife.

Instead of finding success as a lighting designer she has put her husband Nick, their adopted son Samuel and their daughter Isabel first.

Her lifestyle has always been on the reckless side.

But Nick's conscience, sense and good nature have always compensated, giving her the security she has craved since childhood.

At least until now.

A message on the answerphone, a visit to the doctor and the return of Samuel's natural mother โ€” Nick's wayward younger sister โ€” are about to upset the balance of their lives, casting shadows where there was light, and doubt where there was certainty.

As they each confront their own personal demons, Faye and Nick must find a way forward.

But will it be in the last place they look?

The Last Place You Look is touching story of courage, tenderness, fear and faith, which Norma Curtis deftly recounts with her unique blend of dry humour, warmth, wisdom and originality.
