In 17th century England, Thomas Fawkes is infected with the Stone Plague, and the only cure is to join his father's Gunpowder Plot to assassinate the king of England. The problem: Doing so will destroy the family of the girl Thomas loves. But backing out of the plot will send his father and the other plotters to the gallows.

Somewhere between 3.5 - 3.75 stars.
Overall, it wasn't a bad read but the beginning of this was a little slow for me before finally picking up slightly before the halfway point. Thomas was not my favorite character in the beginning (which may have contributed to that) but I think he did grow some during the book. Emma was a great character from the beginning.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Thomas Nelson through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
