A cyclone flattens much of Boston, leaving the Smythe family's carpentry shop in ruins. Then, while Father is in England, the family home burns to the ground.
Phillip Smythe wonders if his sister Leah will ever be well, if the Indian he meets in the woods near Massachusetts Bay Colony is a friend or enemy, and if his dream of becoming an apothecary will ever come true.
