The Cartographersis one of those brilliant books you have to read twice. Washington Post

There are echoes of Borges and Bradbury, Pynchon and Finians Rainbow, but Ms. Shepherds exhilarating and enjoyable work casts a magical glow all its own.

Wall Street Journal

From the critically acclaimed author ofThe Book of M, a highly imaginative thriller about a young woman who discovers that a strange map in her deceased fathers belongings holds an incredible, deadly secretone that will lead her on an extraordinary adventure and to the truth about her familys dark history.

What is the purpose of a map?

Nell Youngs whole life and greatest passion is cartography. Her father, Dr. Daniel Young, is a legend in the field and Nells personal hero.

But she hasnt seen or spoken to him ever since he cruelly fired her and destroyed her reputation after an argument over an old, cheap gas station highway map.

But when Dr. Young is found dead in his office at the New York Public Library, with the very same seemingly worthless map hidden in his desk, Nell cant resist investigating. To her surprise, she soon discovers that the map is incredibly valuable and exceedingly rare.

In fact, she may now have the only copy left in existence...because a mysterious collector has been hunting down and destroying every last onealong with anyone who gets in the way.

But why?

To answer that question, Nell embarks on a dangerous journey to reveal a dark family secret and discovers the true power that lies in maps...

Perfect for fans of Joe Hill and V. E. Schwab,The Cartographersis an ode to art and science, history and magica spectacularly imaginative, modern story about an ancient craft and places still undiscovered.
