Takeaways
Description
England, 1580: The Black Death makes its way across England, infecting the healthy and the sick, the old and the young alike.  The end of days is near, but life always goes on. A Latin tutor falls in love with an extraordinary, eccentric young woman. Agnes walks her family's land with a falcon on her glove and is known throughout the countryside for her unusual gifts as a healer. She becomes a fiercely protective mother and a steadfast, centrifugal force in the life of her young husband after their son succumbs to sudden fever.
