The Plague Pit (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781909473195)

Deep foundations are being dug on a City building site when some old brickwork is revealed. Part of it collapses, releasing a gust of air so foul that the men nearby begin to choke and retch. Finally the nauseous stench disperses, and they discover a burial crypt dating back to the Great Plague of London in 1665. But these pits should never be disturbed. When the intruders begin to show horrifying symptoms - fever, nausea, revolting swellings - all will die hideously within five days. The frightened authorities struggle to stop a national crisis. So the victims are isolated, and a cover-up is launched. But one of the men who entered the pit cannot be traced.
