Until now, Highlander Jamie Fraser and his wife, Claire have shared the war for American independence as much as they've shared their lives. Jamie, always a warrior and now a soldier and an officer, fights the enemy with fire and sword; Claire, once a nurse and now a healer, fights death through every battle and sometimes wins. Nothing can divide them, save dire emergency. And emergency finds each of them bound by blood, by vows and obligations of the heart. To their family, as well as to comrades and each other. Claire's battles aren't limited to the battlefield, and she cannot deny an urgent call that only she can answer.
