The Last Mapmaker of Hollowmere
In the drowned market town of Hollowmere, sixteen-year-old Mara Venn inherits her grandmother’s unfinished maps, each one charting places that should not exist. When the town’s oldest landmarks begin shifting overnight, Mara realises the maps are not records at all, but instructions for keeping something sealed away. She has to decide whether to preserve the town’s fragile peace or follow the trail into the ruin beneath it.
