📖 Synopsis:
In 1815, the first geological map was created, marking a revolutionary shift in how humans perceived the three-dimensional Earth in a two-dimensional representation. This single map challenged nearly 2,000 years of religious beliefs—if the world wasn't created in six days, was the divine creation theory just a myth?

But who would prove it? The man who made this map mysteriously disappeared. Was he driven away by society’s fear, the oppression of religious leaders, or some other unknown force?

The British intellectual community, despite championing the Age of Enlightenment, failed to protect this seeker of truth. This novel unravels the untold dark secrets within an era of light, portraying a forgotten scientist’s silent struggle against dogma and power.
