London 1665. Sam was just a young boy when his master took him out of the poorhouse to be his servant. He was going to be trained up as a cobbler, and one day he'd be able to make his own way in the world. But that was before the plague arrived. Instead of working for a living, Sam finds himself sealed in his workshop home with his dying master. The officials call it 'quarantine'. But for Sam it's a death sentence. Can Sam escape? And even if he does, will he be able to survive outside on London's ravaged streets?

Review:
The atmosphere of the plague-ridden city is expertly captured. * Irish Examiner * Ann Turnbull's lovely prose overcomes them to make an engaging story in just a few words - a real art. * www.booksforkeeps.co.uk * The story zips along and I found it engrossing. * The Historical Novel Society * The books contain enough tension to grip the reader and keep the stories flowing and the atmosphere of Stuart London is excellently evoked. * www.parentsintouch.co.uk * The author tackles this potentially disturbing story with balance and sensitivity, protecting readers into the experience rather than hiding them entirely from it. -- Tim Taylor * Primary Teacher Update *
