About this book
After surviving the Great Plague, Hannah convinces her parents to let her and her younger sister Anne return to London to run the family's sweetmeats shop. The sisters are delighted to be back, and Hannah even reunites with her old friend Tom, now working for a magician. Their joy is cut short when a series of fires erupts across the city, quickly threatening their shop and forcing them to confront the looming disaster of the Great Fire of 1666.
