It's December 1936 when the first polio cases are suspected. Soon a polio epidemic is sweeping the country. Schools are closed, swimming pools and movie theatres banned to children, and travel restricted - but the epidemic is still spreading. Tom is the best runner in his school - but you can't outrun polio. Your family can't hide from it. And nobody knows where it will strike next.
