Summary

 On this day of ill omen, plague makes its entrance. Within weeks, swathes of England will be darkened by death's shadow. While panic and suspicion flood the land, a small band of travelers comes together to outrun the breakdown in law and order.

But when one of their number is found hanging from a tree, the chilling discovery confirms that something more sinister than plague is in their midst. And as the runes warn of treachery, it appears no one is quite what they seem, least of all the child rune reader, who mercilessly compels each of her companions to tell their stories. And face the consequences...

This black plague fantasy was an absolutely gripping read. The writing was vivid and atmospheric, pulling me straight into a dark and haunting world. The plot was full of unexpected twists and turns that kept me guessing all the way through, and just when I thought I had it figured out, the ending completely blew me away. The storyteller’s performance elevated the whole experience — their pacing, tone, and emotion gave real weight to the tension and mystery. It was both chilling and captivating from beginning to end.

A story that will stay with me forever!
