When they have the treasure, they plan to go to France and sell the jewels, but Young Ian is kidnapped by a strange ship. Jamie and Claire go to France, where Jamie's cousin, Jared, helps them determine the ship's identity and gives them a ship for the West Indies to rescue Ian. At sea, their ship is hailed by an English ship called the Porpoise , looking for a surgeon. While Claire is treating the sick, the Porpoise gets under way with Claire on board, and Claire learns that the customs agent searching for Jamie is aboard the Porpoise and plans to have Jamie arrested in Jamaica. Claire escapes to Hispaniola , where she is found by a naturalist studying the island's flora, Dr. Stern, and a bizarre, drunken, defrocked priest. Jamie's ship has run aground on Hispaniola following a storm, but Claire soon learns that Jamie had left them to rescue her. He is captured briefly but escapes and is reunited with Claire. Disguised as a Frenchman, Jamie attends a ball for the local governor his old friend Lord John Grey and leaves to speak to John privately. A young woman is murdered at the ball and the guests are detained under suspicion. Claire also speaks to John and he tells her that he gave Jamie a portrait of his son, Willie, whom Jamie has yet to tell her about. Jamie and Claire search for Young Ian at a slave market and later at the plantation of a Mrs. Abernathy, whom they identify as the former Geillis Duncan. After their stay with her, Jamie and Claire discover that Geillis has Ian captive. Jamie and his men plan to recover Ian, only to find that Geillis has left and taken Ian with her. Claire visits Geillis' workroom and finds a picture of Brianna nailed to the table, with suggestion of an intended sacrifice of her. After a struggle in a cave on Jamaica, Claire kills Geillis with an axe and she and Jamie escape with Ian. As they sail away from Jamaica, they are chased by the Porpoise again. In a storm, the British ship is lost, and the Scottish ship Artemis is blown off course, and shipwrecked in the American colony of Georgia. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Now Gabaldon returns to that extraordinary time and place in this vivid, powerful follow-up to Outlander. For twenty years, Claire Randall has kept her secrets. Here Claire plans to reveal a truth as shocking as the events that gave it birth: the secret of an ancient circle of standing stones, the secret of a love that transcends centuries, and the truth of a man named Jamie Fraser—a Highland warrior whose gallantry once drew the young Claire from the security of her century to the dangers of his. The pages practically turn themselves. A powerful tale layered in history and myth. I loved every page. Kniha: Outlander 3: Voyager – Diana Gabaldon | The third time I woke alone, beyond the touch of love or grief. The sight of the stones was fresh in my mind. A small circle, standing stones on the crest of a steep green hill. Some say the hill is enchanted, others say it is cursed. Both are right. But no one knows the function or the purpose of the stones. Talking after love-making from Season 1. As my stills suggest, the true thread that unites this third divagating book is still romance: a series of couples, which include Jamie and the mother of his son, Willie, her sister, Isabel who Lord John obligingly marries so as to make a family for the little boy. The book is about voyaging across the sea, and voyaging through different worlds. The opening still of the ghost standing by a monument in a darkened street, looking up at someone through a window is iconic; he is her dream. In Gabaldon it seems to me Jamie serves this purpose; Claire is very much a classically female heroine. She can be differently female from the other women, as they are all 18th century in conception; for example, Jenny with her many children. Claire is independent, scientifically educated, progressive in politics, pro-active in behavior. But the theme, the image is watery, that of water become magical and that is adumbrated in her prologue above, the opening epigraph to this blog. Now here is the great opening of Drums of Autumn , the book starts almost astounding strongly; each of them thus far with a long internal monologue: this one is about living with ghosts, and so directly relevant to the whole project of historical fiction and time-traveling. And then we turn to Claire and Jamie witnessing a very strong scene of hanging and the violence of the US colony, its cruelty. I live with them daily, after all. No, how should I fear the touch of those vanished hands, laid on me in love unknowing? How could I be afraid of those that molded my flesh, leaving their remnants to live long past the grave? Still less could I be afraid of those ghosts who touch my thoughts in passing.
