The Latitude of Lies

A crooked street. A dead mapmaker. A survey that rewrote the land itself.

Cartographer Silas Thorne measures the world for a living. His partner Linus reads people the way Silas reads terrain, for the angles they hide and the odds they pretend not to calculate. Together, they take commissions that other surveyors won’t touch: the maps that don’t add up, the boundaries that move overnight, the claims that make investors rich and miners dead.

Promise Creek should have been simple. Verify a claim map. Confirm a gold vein. Collect the fee.
