Plague Times Trilogy 1
John Murray
2014

A fatal epidemic nicknamed "the sweats" is starting to take hold of the UK. In London, Stevie Flint, a former journalist and now a shopping channel presenter, finds her boyfriend dead. And she doesn't believe "the sweats" killed him.
I’m a huge fan of Louise Welsh. This is somewhat of a departure for her. I don’t like plague and pestilence plots, but am always horribly gripped by them. If you haven’t read anything by her before then start with The Cutting Room, her first book.
