Description

The Plague Charmer by Karen Maitland is a dark and enthralling novel set in medieval England, 1361. Thirteen years after the Black Death, plague returns to the country, bringing fear and hysteria with it.

In this gripping story, a stranger arrives in an isolated community on the brink of a pandemic. As the sickness spreads, the question arises: who will lose the most? The answer is not as clear-cut as it seems, and those seeking to exploit the situation for their own dark ends are lurking in the shadows.

With vividly told horrors and an underlying sense of human resilience and hope, The Plague Charmer is a poignant and shocking tale that will keep you on the edge of your seat. A real pacey read with a haunting atmosphere, this book is not to be missed.
