copper-haireddaughter, Brianna, as Claire's spellbinding journey of
self-discovery continuesin the intrigue-ridden Paris court of Charles
Stuart ...in a race to thwart adoomed Highlands uprising ...and in a
desperate fight to save both the childand the man she loves....

talent, Diana Gabaldon is light-years ahead of her romance-novelist
colleagues."
