Abstract
As battle-scarred Jamie Fraser and his twentieth-century time-travelling wife Claire Randall flee from North Carolina to the high seas during the American Revolution, they encounter privateers and ocean battles. Meanwhile in the relative safety of the 20th century Brianna (Claire and Jamie's daughter) and Roger MacKenzie, Brianna's husband, search for clues not only to Claire's fate--but to their own fate in the Highlands.
Description
Synopsis
A new Outlander novel — the seventh — from #1 National Bestselling author Diana Gabaldon.
Readers have been waiting with bated breath for the seventh volume in bestselling author Diana Gabaldons epic Outlander saga — a masterpiece of historical fiction featuring Jamie and Claire, from one of the genres most popular and beloved authors.
Jamie Fraser, erstwhile Jacobite and reluctant rebel, knows three things about the American rebellion: the Americans will win, unlikely as that seems in 1778; being on the winning side is no guarantee of survival; and hed rather die than face his illegitimate son — a young lieutenant in the British Army — across the barrel of a gun. Frasers time-travelling wife, Claire, also knows a couple of things: that the Americans will win, but that the ultimate price of victory is a mystery. What she does believe is that the price wont include Jamies life or happiness — not if she has anything to say.
Claires grown daughter Brianna, and her husband, Roger, watch the unfolding of Briannas parents history — a past that may be sneaking up behind their own family.
