Early draft
The Cartographer of Hollow Roads
When a London apprentice map-engraver discovers that certain streets only exist at dusk, she is pulled into a hidden network of roads that shift between the city and a broken inland sea. To stop the routes from being rewritten by a vanished court of wayfinders, she has to learn which maps are lies, which lies are useful, and which doors should have stayed shut.
