The Country Beneath the Ink

A funeral procession reaches Ada Serrin’s village three times before it can enter the churchyard. Someone has altered the road. In Ada’s kingdom, ink can shorten a journey, but the missing miles must be walked somewhere else. At seventeen, she knows how to prepare a page. She is only beginning to understand whose lives it can change. As the official maps draw her away from home, Ada must learn to test what the records say against the ground beneath her feet—and listen to the people made to carry the cost. A young adult fantasy about routes, power and the right to have a say in the roads that shape your life.
