It began in Scotland, at an ancient stone circle. There, a doorway, open to a select few, leads into the past--or the grave. Claire Randall survived the extraordinary passage, not once but twice. Her first trip swept her into the arms of Jamie Fraser, an eighteenth-century Scot whose love for her became legend--a tale of tragic passion that ended with her return to the present to bear his child. Her second journey, two decades later, brought them together again in frontier America. But Claire had left someone behind in the twentieth century. Their daughter Brianna. Now, Brianna has made a disturbing discovery that sends her to the stone circle and a terrifying leap into the unknown. In search of her mother and the father she has never met, she is 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.

You *NEED* to read this book!
If you love fiction and/or historical fiction, this book is a *must* read! This is actually the 4th in a series by Diana Gabaldon (the 1st in the series is Outlander). I have never been a fan of fiction where the majority of the plot takes place in Europe but this series has me completely hooked and has really expanded my reading interests. I can't even emphasize how much you need to read this series!
