The Cartographer of Lost Tuesdays

The Cartographer of Lost TuesdaysSeven strangers stood in a Port Louis square on an ordinary Tuesday and watched the city's iconic clock tower burn to the ground. The only problem: the fire never happened. Cartographer Lena Naidoo has spent three years haunted by phantom smoke and the memory of melting copper, until a mysterious letter leads her to five other Mauritians who share her impossible vision.
As she descends into the island's hidden layers-through a crumbling blue door, into a ghost city where the dead still arrive by ship, and toward a truth about her own grandmother's disappearance-Lena discovers that some fires don't consume stone. They consume forgetting itself. Blending the lyrical magic of The Inheritance of Loss with the haunting atmosphere of The Ocean at the End of the Lane, this is a novel about the stories we bury, the ancestors we abandon, and the maps we must draw to find our way home.
