About this ebook
When an industrial dredging proposal threatens Skimmer Gut's fragile eelgrass nursery, Dr. Tamsin Callow faces an urgent twenty-eight-day deadline to prove the Virginia tidal inlet is protected public land. Informed that ecological data alone cannot defeat the rezoning petition without unbroken riparian title, Tamsin turns to Northampton County’s reclusive surveyor, Gideon Frayne. In the municipal archives, Gideon unearths an uncataloged 1734 patent referencing four colonial boundary stones that designate the Gut as an inalienable public commons. To locate the lost monuments, Tamsin must pair her modern digital bathymetry with Gideon’s historical cadastral records, forcing the solitary researcher and guarded surveyor to forge an unexpected alliance before the crucial vote.
