The Cartographers Daughter: Some places only exist because they are mapped.: 1 - Softcover
Book 1 of 2: The Cartographer's Daughter
Synopsis
When Clara Ashford inherits her late father's unfinished survey of colonial Rhodesia, she expects to complete a routine cartographic expedition and preserve the reputation of a respected Royal Geographical Society surveyor. Instead, she uncovers a trail of forgotten journals, altered maps, and missing settlements that suggest the official record is far from complete.
Travelling across rivers, escarpments, and remote valleys, Clara follows the path her father once walked, piecing together a story that powerful institutions would rather leave buried. As the evidence grows, so does the cost of revealing it. Every corrected line on the map challenges decades of accepted history and forces Clara to confront uncomfortable truths about family, empire, and the responsibility of those who record the world.
Rich in atmosphere and historical detail, The Cartographer's Daughter is a compelling work of historical fiction that blends mystery, adventure, and emotional discovery. Perfect for readers who enjoy thoughtful literary fiction, historical mysteries, and stories of exploration, memory, and hidden history.
A journey across an extraordinary landscape becomes a search for truth itself, proving that sometimes the most dangerous discoveries are not hidden in the wilderness, but on the maps we trust to tell us where we have been.
