Plague by Jo Macauley
Fourteen-year-old Beth Johnson is a talented and beautiful young actress. She is also a spy. It’s the summer of 1665, and the horrific Plague is overwhelming London. With so many dead and dying, the King’s Master of Secrets, Alan Strange, must entrust Beth with her most important mission yet. With pestilence all around her, will Beth survive long enough to discover who is behind the latest conspiracy to kill the King?
Set in 17th century London, young spies Beth, John, and Ralph are charged with keeping the king safe while going about their daily livesBeth is a famous actress-the perfect cover for her spying activities. John is a clerk for the Navy board and after meeting Beth, he too becomes a spy. Ralph was brought in by the king's spymaster because of his knowledge of the streets, and gives the group their assignments. In Treason, Beth and her colleagues discover a mysterious boat that has brought in explosives to kill the King. In the next book, the dangers of the plague surround the team. Each book, written by Jo Macauley, can stand on its own as a list of characters is provided in each volume, but readers will be more familiar with the characters if they are read in order. The storylines will keep readers interested, and the historical setting and facts will make the stories come to life.
