Description - Paradise Earth by Amy Barker

Coming home to Tasman Peninsula, approaching the 25th anniversary of the 1996 Port Arthur massacre, Ruth journeys into psychic trauma. When her brother helps his fourteen-year-old son apply for a firearms permit, they risk repeating the past, forgotten too soon.

A Port Arthur massacre survivor, Marina has returned to the Peninsula with her brother to pack up Doo-No-Harm, the family holiday home, after their mother's death. In a convoy of duck rescuers, the siblings head for a confrontation with shooters on the wetland. These are lives choreographed by trauma, damage and the ramifications of wilful forgetfulness.
