---------
For twenty years Claire Randall has kept her secrets. But now she is returning with her grown daughter to the majesty of Scotland's mist-shrouded hills.
Here Claire plans to reveal a truth as stunning as the events that gave it birth: about the mystery of an ancient circle of standing stones, about a love that transcends the boundaries of time, and about James Fraser, a warrior whose gallantry once drew the young Claire from the security of her century to the dangers of his.
Now a legacy of blood and desire will test her beautiful daughter as Claire's spellbinding journey continues in the intrigue-ridden court of Charles Edward Stuart, in a race to thwart a doomed uprising, and in a desperate fight to save both the child and the man she loves.

A triumph! A powerful tale layered in history and myth, at its core is a love so vivid and fierce...
Marvellous... It is a large canvas that Gabaldon paints, filled with strong passions and derring-do. * San Francisco Chronicle *
A most entertaining mix of history and fantasy * Kirkus Reviews *
I challenge anyone to read just a few pages of this monumental book and not, within moments, disappear alongside Claire through the stones, to another time and place. I found myself 10 years ago, embarking on my Outlander TV journey. I was literally sucked into Diana’s dramatic story (the line between reality and fiction as fragile as the pages of this book, held between Jamie’s tapping finger and thumb). Only now, over a decade later, 8 seasons and 101 episodes of extraordinary Television, do I find myself with some sadness, looking back on this epic journey, yearning to do it all again. The joy of this book though, is that one can, simply by reading again… * Sam Heughan *
Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series has brought a touch of Caledonian magic to millions around the globe - and also brought so many fans to Scotland to explore the spectacular country that is my home. We readers, viewers and Scots are grateful to her for sharing her love of Scottish history and culture. Outlander remains a treasure to be enjoyed and shared. * Ian Rankin *
