"Torn between two completely incompatible lives..."
It all began in the Highlands in 1945, when Claire Randall passed through a circle of standing stones and magically found herself in 1743. Trapped in the whirlwind of the bloody war between the English and the Jacobites, Claire seeks refuge in the castle of Clan MacKenzie and discovers love in the face of Jamie Fraser.

But happiness does not last forever. Soon, Claire will face the harsh side of fate. She will be accused of being a witch and risk being burned at the stake, she will experience pain and betrayal, and she will uncover guilty secrets capable of leading people to death. Yet she must overcome herself and fight to heal the soul of her beloved from wounds that seem as if they will never heal...

The second book in the series that inspired the television blockbuster "Outlander," translated into more than 10 languages and topping the most important best-seller lists worldwide.
