Songs for the Last Dodo

For centuries, the dodos of Mauritius have sung the island's erased histories from a hidden world between tides. When archivist Leila uncovers a 17th-century Dutch map that should not exist-one showing living dodos and forests long since fallen-she is pulled into a conspiracy of colonial ghosts, fractured timelines, and a governor who refuses to die. To seal the wounds in the veil of worlds, Leila must learn the forgotten songs of the Maroons, win the trust of the last singing dodo, and become the bridge between what was lost and what might yet survive.
