The Margins of Salt
In late 19th-century Portsmouth, a widowed copyist takes work in a private naval archive and begins to notice the absences in the records as carefully as the facts. When she finds references to a sailor whose name has been altered and then erased, she is drawn into a quiet investigation that threatens her livelihood and her sense of what history is allowed to keep.
