About this book
She broke through a quarantined wall to save her son; now a grieving plasterer must open seven sealed homes and face the cost of every passage.
Stratford, 1593. When a reckless opening through a quarantine wall costs Kristen Hicks her young son, the plasterer secretly connects seven plague-bound homes. Every literal breach follows the building’s constraints, shifts power between households and leaves a permanent scar—the architecture makes grief tangible. To release the people gathered in this improvised refuge, Kristen must finally bring down her own house.
