About the Book

A town mapped by memory.
A truth hidden by silence.

Mara Voss has spent her career drawing coastlines from a distance. Returning home after her father’s death, she finds an unfinished map marked with places that do not officially exist.

As tides alter the harbor and old relationships surface, Mara must decide whether the map records a landscape, a confession, or an invitation to finish what her father began.

“Atmospheric, precise, and quietly devastating.”

Concept editorial quotation

Excerpt / 01

The harbor had moved again overnight.Mara could tell by the angle of the fishing boats, each one leaning toward a shoreline the town insisted had never changed.

She unfolded her father’s map across the kitchen table. In the margin, beneath a stain shaped like a tide pool, he had written one sentence: Begin where the road disappears.
