This is a story about a girl who followed a map off the edge of the world…
From an award-winning company comes an original fairytale drawn from the twitchy edges of children’s literature. In New Zealand there are some 56,000 kilometres of paper roads – streets and towns that exist only on surveyors’ maps. Or do they? A young woman strays from the beaten track and finds herself in a paper world. It seems a land of possibility but she soon discovers that things that happen in the fictional world can have frighteningly real consequences.
