Louise is wondering where she went wrong. She stayed at school, got a degree, worked her way into a good career, didn't borrow money, paid her bills - and yet, at 28, she feels that Life has overlooked her. Is being too careful a curse? Will love ever find her? And where-oh-where are all the marriageable men?

Morning in Melbourne is the story of Louise Keats who, at the age of 50, finds herself coming to the end of her career, the end of her children's school lives, and the end of her marriage. But life surges on, taking Louise with it - to Destinations Unknown.
