(4) 4-6 Picking up where At the Sign of the Sugared Plum left off, Hannah and her older sister spend several months outside of London until the plague subsides. Hannah returns to London with her younger sister shortly before the Great Fire of 1666. Details of everyday life, along with the sometimes harrowing account of escaping the fire, carry the otherwise tepid historical novel along.
Reviewer: Jeannine M. Chapman
