EVERLOST

When a dying cartographer mails Dr. Isla Voss half of a fourteenth-century chart, it points to a coastline that appears on no modern map — and a kingdom history insists never existed.

Three days later, the cartographer is dead, the other half of the chart is gone, and a private military syndicate called the Meridian Company is asking questions in Isla's name. What follows is a hunt across three continents for the Sunken Crown — the lost regalia of the Thalassian kings, said to command the tide itself.

From a temple city swallowed by the jungle to a burning steppe citadel and a sinkhole that eats daylight whole, Isla must out-climb, out-shoot, and out-think an enemy that has been searching for four hundred years — and decide whether some things deserve to stay buried.
