Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Diana Gabaldon returns to her Outlander universe in “The Space Between,” an irresistible novella brimming with adventure, history, and suspense.

Joan MacKimmie is on her way to Paris to take up her vocation as a nun. Yet her decision is less a matter of faith than fear, for Joan is plagued by mysterious voices that speak of the future, and by visions that mark those about to die. The sanctuary of the nunnery promises respite from these unwanted visitations . . . or so she prays. Her chaperone is Michael Murray, a young widower who, though he still mourns the death of his wife, finds himself powerfully drawn to his charge. But when the time-traveling Comte St. Germain learns of Joan’s presence in Paris, and of her link to Claire Fraser—La Dame Blanche—Murray is drawn into a battle whose stakes are not merely the life but the very soul of the Scotswoman who, without even trying, has won his heart.

    While this answers some questions about a couple of "Outlander" characters, it leaves gaping holes behind and ends without much of a denouement.

    I have been reading a lot in my old age and this is one of the best series I've read. All my friends have read it to and are impatiently waiting for the series on stars. It's the type of series you can read over and over again and still find something you might of missed. It takes you back and makes you feel like you're there ,like you yourself have gone through time.. Thank u for writing this series......... A fellow Arizonia
