In the late fourteenth century, the Black Death has devastated Europe. And one Jewish physicianβon the run from the English authoritiesβstruggles to rebuild his life and save his adopted daughter, imprisoned in the court of her birth father, King Edward III. Meanwhile, in the near-future, life has virtually shut down across the world due to a reappearance of the virulent DR SAMβan even deadlier killer than the once- feared Black Death. But one bold group of survivors struggles to rebuild a fragmented worldβ and reestablish the broken bonds of civilization.
