About this novel
When a bridge shivers beneath an empty bicycle and a gauge insists nothing is wrong, Mira Vey is drawn into a dispute the town has learned to survive by leaving it unnamed.
Sol Ader knows the wetlands by routes that do not appear on any city map. As pumps start outside schedule and old channels shift, Mira and Sol must decide what can be measured, what must be protected, and what they are willing to reveal to one another.
The Waterline Between Us is a quiet, atmospheric mystery about contested land, ecological change, and the difficult work of learning to care without taking control.
