In 1666, the plague has come to a small English village. In order to prevent the spread of the disease, the town's minster convinces the villagers to quarantine themselves from the rest of the world to prevent it's spread. But for how long will the villagers be able to turn to God before they turn to other options, or turn on each other? Anna, housemaid to the minister, serves as the focal point for the story.
This book was a fascinating read, keeping me completely engrossed each page. My only fault was with the extremely convenient wrap up at the end, which didn't ring true. But other than that, I totally recommend this book if you like historical fiction.
