Book Description

Seventeen-century England.

In a remote Derbyshire village, over three hundred years ago, a man tried to serve his God to the best of his belief ...but at a terrible cost to himself and others.

He believed he was following Divine instructions.

But was he a hero or a fool?

William Mompesson is the new Rector of Eyam.

He is young, handsome, and has a lovely family.

Life is too easy in the countryside, as his wife and children enjoy his generous income and the apathetic locals do not require much spiritual guidance.

Mompesson’s greatest daily challenge is for the souls of his parishoners, as paganism and the famous dissenter Thomas Stanley vie for the attention of the people.

But he soon faces a great test as the Plague comes to town, possibly in the crate with his sister-in-law’s wedding dress.

As his parishioners die one after another, how can Mompesson reconcile God and the wedding dress?
