From the publisher:

In 1865, surveyor Tomás and his ten-year-old son Liam travel a remote Atlantic peninsula as part of the British Ordnance Survey’s effort to map Ireland after the Great Hunger. Determined to preserve evidence of the famine’s devastation in his work, Tomás becomes psychologically altered after a disturbing encounter in a woodland copse. As British officers approach expecting the survey’s completion, Liam must confront his father’s unraveling and attempt to guide them home.
