A frontier capital that believes its own paperwork. A murdered records clerk. A surveying firm that bears his dead father's name. The acclaimed Thorne & Linus historical mystery series reaches its sixth installment. In the snowbound territorial capital of Carson City, Nevada, every street, lot, and land claim is filed and certified— and whoever controls the record controls the truth. So when the one clerk who knew the old survey plats by heart is found dead behind a bolted office door the morning of his appointment with surveyor Silas Thorne, the official cause is a tired heart.

A dead surveyor. A corrupted compass. And buried iron that points to murder. Nevada Territory, 1882. Surveyor Virgil Peck is found face-up on the alkali flats east of Furnace Creek — no water, no hat, no horse, and a shattered compass at his side. The coroner rules it exposure. The desert, after all, doesn't require malice. Silas Thorne knows better. Hired to verify Peck's railroad survey, Silas and his partner Linus arrive in a town built around a water tower and controlled by a man who owns every spring in the basin. The survey should be routine.

A dead man among survey stakes. A woman in a cell. And a boundary worth killing for. Oregon's Cascade Mountains, 1881. Surveyor Silas Thorne is hired to verify a disputed treaty boundary that separates Klamath reservation land from a timber empire. The surveyor who drew the correct line — the brilliant, uncompromising Harriet Lockwood — sits in jail, accused of murdering the man whose body was found among her boundary markers. But Silas reads ground the way other men read books. And the ground is telling a different story. Stakes driven plumb vertical — not perpendicular to the slope.

A twelve-year land war. Two dead lovers. And a map that's been lying longer than anyone's been fighting. California, 1879. When surveyor Silas Thorne is commissioned to draw the definitive boundary between two feuding ranching families in the San Joaquin Valley, the assignment looks straight forward: one meridian line, eight hundred acres of disputed ground, and a territorial judge who wants the matter settled. Then two young lovers from the rival families turn up dead on the disputed strip, and nothing about the valley is what the records claim. A crime measured in inches.

A Compass for the DeadBook 2 in the Thorne & Linus: Cartographic Mysteries SeriesA dead lighthouse keeper. A village with too much French wine. And a harbor where the charts lie. Surveyor Silas Thorne has followed his missing father's trail from the gold camps of the High Sierras to a fog-bound fishing village on the Mendocino coast. His commission is to map a new coastal road. His real purpose is to understand why a brass marker stamped with his father's initials bears a bearing that points to Sentinel Point — a place where the lighthouse burns true and the ships still die.

The Latitude of Lies: Thorne & Linus Cartographic Mysteries, Book 1In a town built on a fifteen-degree lie, the truth is the most dangerous thing you can measure. Silas Thorne is a man of precise measurements and hard angles. As a licensed surveyor, he knows that while people lie, the land never does. When he’s hired to verify a high-stakes mining claim in the remote Sierra Nevada boomtown of Promise Creek, he expects a routine audit of quartz veins and property lines. Instead, he finds a town whose very geometry is an impossibility.
