About this book
Seven plague-bound homes become a single hidden refuge when a grieving plasterer breaks through their shared walls—and finds that no passage is one-way.
Stratford, 1593. When plasterer Kristen Hicks makes a reckless opening through a quarantined wall, the breach costs her young son his life. In secret, Kristen connects a row of seven sealed homes, turning divided households into a refuge whose passages reshape power, work and family life. To release the people gathered there, Kristen must confront the room kept for the dead and bring down her own house.
