Mrs. Sinden, a story of love in a time of plague. Jessica Sinden, a reserved British woman who has lost one of her three children to suicide, unexpectedly falls in love. Love upends her, and even she is surprised by all the changes she feels in and around herself. But Jessica meets her American lover, Philip Nye, just as rumors begin to mount about some kind of new disease in China. The references to the disease, SARS, are at first offhand and casual, deepening in seriousness as the narrative proceeds, and the two of them wind up quarantined together on a high mountain, waiting for death. One dies."--
