Synopsis "An Echo in the Bone: A Novel (Outlander) "

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The seventh book in Diana Gabaldon's acclaimed Outlander saga, the basis for the Starz original series. "All you've come to expect from Gabaldon . . . adventure, history, romance, fantasy."--The Arizona Republic 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.

Diana Gabaldon (Arizona 1952), American writer with degrees in Zoology (bachelor's), Marine Biology (master's) and Ecology (PhD), combined her academic career -publishing scientific articles and humorous stories for Disney- with literary creation. In 1991, she started the Outlander series, her first novel, which blends historical romance, adventure, and time travel. The series has sold over 50 million copies, has been translated into 38 languages, and has received awards such as the RITA (1992) and the PEN Book Award (2006).

Additionally, Gabaldon has expanded her literary universe with 9 novels in the main series, Lord John Grey spin-offs, the collection Seven Stones to Stand or Fall, three non-fiction books, and an Outlander graphic novel, published in Spanish by Salamandra.
