On a school trip to the plague village of Eyam, Seth is moved by the story of how villagers sacrificed their lives to the dreaded Black Death. Kim and Wes are more interested in what they see at the bottom of the wishing well money! But when they snatch the coins they also pick up something they hadn't bargained for and as the hideous consequence of their theft catch up with them all, Seth is forced to face a terrifying truth. Has Eyams plague-ridden past resurfaced to seek revenge?
