In 1945, Claire Randall, a former British combat nurse, is enjoying a second honeymoon in the Scottish Highlands when she steps through a circle of standing stones and finds herself in 1743. Suddenly she is an outlander in a land torn by clan rivalries, political intrigue, and brutal conflict.
Marooned in a dangerous and unfamiliar time, Claire’s only chance of safety lies with Jamie Fraser, a young Scottish warrior whose courage and loyalty run deep. What begins as a reluctant alliance soon becomes a passionate bond that defies centuries.
Rich in historical detail and unforgettable characters, Outlander blends romance, adventure, and history in a sweeping tale of love that spans time itself.
