Years of bad weather and natural disasters have choked Italy's food supply, and the people of Florence are dying of starvation. Queues for bread are battlegrounds, and young Maria has to fight for her family's every loaf. Adding to the misery, the Black Plague is rapidly spreading through the country, killing everyone in its path. Maria has already lost her mother and sister. Will she be strong enough to save the rest of her family before it's too late?
