“Riveting. Gabaldon has a true
storyteller’s voice.”
— The
Globe and Mail
Diana Gabaldon’s brilliant storytelling has captivated
millions of readers in her bestselling and award-winning
Outlander saga. Now, in An
Echo in the Bone, the enormously anticipated seventh
volume, Gabaldon continues the extraordinary story of
the eighteenth-century Scotsman Jamie Fraser and his
twentieth-century time-traveling wife, Claire Randall.
Jamie Fraser, former Jacobite and reluctant rebel, is
already certain of three things about the American
rebellion: The Americans will win, fighting on the side
of victory is no guarantee of survival, and he’d rather
die than have to face his illegitimate son–a young
lieutenant in the British army–across the barrel of a
gun.
Claire Randall knows that the Americans will win, too,
but not what the ultimate price may be. That price won’t
include Jamie’s life or his happiness, though–not if she
has anything to say about it.
Meanwhile, in the relative safety of the twentieth
century, Jamie and Claire’s daughter, Brianna, and her
husband, Roger MacKenzie, have resettled in a historic
Scottish home where, across a chasm of two centuries,
the unfolding drama of Brianna’s parents’ story comes to
life through Claire’s letters. The fragile pages reveal
Claire’s love for battle-scarred Jamie Fraser and their
flight from North Carolina to the high seas, where they
encounter privateers and ocean battles–as Brianna and
Roger search for clues not only to Claire’s fate but to
their own. Because the future of the MacKenzie family in
the Highlands is mysteriously, irrevocably, and
intimately entwined with life and death in war-torn
colonial America.
With stunning cameos of historical characters from
Benedict Arnold to Benjamin Franklin, An Echo in the
Bone is a soaring masterpiece of imagination, insight,
character, and adventure–a novel that echoes in the mind
long after the last page is turned.
