As a young woman, Mavis Gaunt leaves post-war London to make a new
life for herself in rural Devon, where she spent a few blissful
months of her childhood as an evacuee. Living alone in the verdant
hamlet of Shipleigh, she believes she's found a heaven on earth -
until a violent tragedy brings trouble to paradise, and turns
Mavis's idyllic solitude into a tormented, guarded isolation.
Decades later, the arrival of a newcomer to the village forces
Mavis to make a final reckoning: should she take her horrible
secret to the grave? Or, should she summon up her ghosts and, in
doing so, lay them to rest? An Inventory of Heaven is a lyrical and
intimate meditation on the rural life, falling in love and the long
passing of time.
