Siedmy diel uznávanej knižnej ságy od Diany Gabaldonovej, na základe ktorej vznikol seriál Starz, sa sústreďuje na Jamieho Frasera, bývalého jakobita, ktorý má jasno v troch aspektoch Americkej revolúcie: Američania zvíťazia, boj za víťaznú stranu mu nezaručí prežitie, a radšej zomrie, než by sa postavil proti svojmu nelegitímnemu synovi, poručíkovi britskej armády. Claire Randallová, Jamieho manželka, tiež verí v víťazstvo Američanov, no netuší, akú cenu to bude mať. Ak bude mať možnosť, postará sa o to, aby tou cenou nebol Jamieho život. Medzitým, v dvadsiatom storočí, ich dcéra Brianna a jej manžel Roger MacKenzie nachádzajú nový domov v starobylom škótskom sídle, kde objavujú dramatické osudy svojich rodičov prostredníctvom Clairiných listov. Tieto stránky odhaľujú Clairinu lásku k Jamiemu, ich útek zo Severnej Karolíny a stretnutia s pirátmi a námornými bitkami. Brianna a Roger hľadajú odpovede na vlastný osud, pričom budúcnosť rodiny MacKenzieovcov je neodvratne spätá so životom a smrťou vo vojnou zmietaných amerických kolóniách. „Naplnenie všetkého, čo človek od Gabaldonovej čaká... dobrodružstvo, dejiny, romantiku a fantáziu.“ – The Arizona Republic
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The fourth book in Diana Gabaldon’s acclaimed Outlander saga, the basis for the Starz original series. “Unforgettable characters . . . richly embroidered with historical detail.”—The Cincinnati Post What if you knew someone you loved was going to die? What if you thought you could save them? How much would you risk to try? Claire Randall has gone to find Jamie Fraser, the man she loved more than life, and has left half her heart behind with their daughter, Brianna. Claire gave up Jamie to save Brianna, and now Bree has sent her mother back to the mysterious Scottish warrior who was willing to give his life to save them both. But a chilling discovery in the pages of history suggests that Jamie and Claire’s story doesn’t have a happy ending. Brianna dares a terrifying leap into the unknown in search of her mother and the father she has never met, risking her own future to try to change history . . . and to save their lives. But as Brianna plunges into an uncharted wilderness, a heartbreaking encounter may strand her forever in the past . . . or root her in the place she should be, where her heart and soul belong.
