In 1665 the Master Builder scoffs at rumours of plague, but soon the red cross is painted on door after door across London. The Harmer family and their neighbours face the sickness, the shut-up houses and the courage of those who nurse the dying, until the Great Fire of 1666 brings a new terror to the doomed city.
