Step into the tumultuous year of 1666 London, where the specter of the Great Plague looms large. In this gripping tale, Manning—a keen observer and an Englishwoman—captures the citys struggles with its gritty materialism and the tragic loss of sacred values. Drawing inspiration from the vivid accounts of diarist Samuel Pepys, she delves into the heart-wrenching realities of the plague and the subsequent Great Fire. Amidst the chaos, she seeks solace for Mistress Cherry in a serene country house in Berkshire, a retreat that promises peace and reflection. Join us on this poignant journey through history as we explore the resilience of the human spirit. - Summary by Lynne Thompson
