Here's a re-written book description, aiming for a more engaging and slightly more concise style:

"In the tumultuous autumn of 1625, plague cart driver Matthew Kneave makes a startling discovery: a living infant amidst the dead. A plague survivor himself, Matthew defies fate and raises the child, Tom, as his own.

Fifteen years later, Tom, now a printer's apprentice in London, finds his life unexpectedly transformed. A mysterious benefactor offers him a gentleman's education, while a hidden enemy plots his demise. Torn between two worlds, Tom grapples with his identity as England descends into Civil War.

Is he a pawn of the devil or a beacon of hope? Royalist or radical? As he ascends the social ladder, a forbidden love forces him to choose between a life of privilege and the woman who holds his heart.

Set against the backdrop of a nation divided, 'Plague Child' weaves a compelling tale of secrets, survival, and the search for belonging in a world on the brink of change."
