In postwar Sydney, Grace Smith takes Mary, a young Aboriginal girl, into her home. She believes she will be able to save the child by giving her all the benefits of white society. But Mary's arrival has unexpected consequences as Grace's past comes back to haunt, and condemn her.

The Heaven I Swallowed is a tale of the Stolen Generations, told from the perspective of the white perpetrator.

Runner-up for the Australian/Vogel's award and longlisted for the Kibble Literary Award.
