“A name cut in stone is the one thing that was never meant to change.”

Cora Ellary cuts names into gravestones for a living, so she knows a recut when she sees one. Hired to clean fifty years of lichen from the Ashcroft memorial in a fen-edge churchyard, she finds a name that reads too new and a date that cannot be true. The village remembers Ellen Ashcroft as the girl who got out — who sailed for Canada and sent home one bright postcard. Reading the stone the way only a letter-cutter can, Cora begins to understand that Ellen never left the parish at all, and that someone has spent half a century making sure no one would ever ask why.
