Oathtide
Some maps are drawn. Others are buried.
When the Crown decides an island's people no longer count, it does more than alter a map. It changes who can be protected, remembered-and believed.
Seven years after Bellscar was reduced to a legal fiction, disgraced tide-cartographer Mara N Fhaol in is pulled back toward D nmara when the Oathtide arrives thirteen days early. Across the sea, bells begin speaking the names of erased coastlines.
Mara's seventeen-year-old daughter, Ailbhe, can hear something stranger still: a ninth name that no adult can hold in memory.
Returning means confronting the Crown, the maps Mara once trusted, and Cian Rourke, the husband and shipwright she left behind. It also means facing a harder truth-that being right never guaranteed she was harmless.
As forgotten harbours reappear and old oaths begin demanding payment, Mara, Ailbhe and Cian are drawn into a struggle over who has the right to name a place, preserve its history, or claim another person's future.
Because in this world, maps remember.
And the sea decides.
