Expect the unexpected - that's a lesson everyone'd be wiseta learn early on. Just when his Life seems fairly settled and on an unshakable foundation once again, Jamie Fraser finds out just how wrong he is. Almost the same thing that happened when he left his Native homeland's happening all over again. The difference this Time's that it's not just his own Life on the line - he's a massive family to worry about in addition to himself. But there's a surprise none of that family saw coming that wasn't present the first Time around. Question is, how will that surprise affect the hasty escape they plan to beat from a War they want no part in?
