From the critically acclaimed author of The Book of M comes a highly imaginative thriller about a young woman who uncovers a deadly secret hidden within a map found among her deceased father's belongings. Nell Young, passionate about cartography, has been estranged from her father, Dr. Daniel Young, a legend in the field, since he fired her after a disagreement over a seemingly worthless gas station map. Following his death at the New York Public Library, Nell discovers that this map, hidden in his desk, is not only valuable but possibly the last of its kind. A mysterious collector has been destroying all copies and eliminating anyone who stands in the way. Driven by the need to understand the significance of the map and her family's dark past, Nell embarks on a perilous journey. Along the way, she uncovers the true power of maps, blending art, science, history, and magic. This captivating tale is perfect for fans of Joe Hill and V. E. Schwab, offering a modern narrative about an ancient craft and the mysteries of undiscovered places.

Od začátku si člověk jen říká, že to nemůže být tak špatné a že se to určitě zlepší. Na konci si musí připustit, že se to nezlepšilo. Nápad fajn, ale zpracování slabé. Naprosto neuvěřitelné postavy, motivace nula. Všichni mluví úplně stejně. Bohužel i špatný překlad (v jednu chvíli jsou postavy v obchodě a další věta je, že v pokoji (= room) se změnila atmosféra) a sazba (špatné dělení slov mezi řádky mi trhá oči).
