While they experienced adventure and humour in this picturesque setting, their intense isolation, and the life and death encounters that they faced in their medical work, tested their resilience as never before. When personal tragedy struck their young family late in their posting, they found themselves profoundly changed - both then and ever since. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'The expat's life is on full display in Michele Browne's 'Beyond the Reef', a book about moving from Australia to a tiny island in the middle of the Pacific, about learning to cope, learning the customs, and saving lives as doctors during their stay in the Cook Islands from 1988 to 89.
