A Gradual Grace is Christina's third memoir. In the first, This Place You Know, she tells the story of her childhood on an outback sheep station, told in her mother's voice and her own voice and published by Ginninderra Press in 2019. The second, A Practice of Loss, tells the story of the breakdown of her marriage and the abduction of her three young daughters by their father. A Gradual Grace completes the trilogy.
