Diana O’Toole is on the right path. By the time she is thirty, she plans to be married, have no more children, and relocate to the suburbs of New York City while also working her way up the corporate ladder in the competitive world of art auctions. She isn’t yet engaged, but she is aware that her boyfriend, Finn, a surgical resident, is preparing to pop the question while they are on a romantic trip to the Galapagos, just days before her 30th birthday. Perfectly timed.
On the eve of their departure, Finn breaks the news that the hospital needs all hands on deck due to a virus that had seemed to have suddenly appeared in the city. He is required to remain. It would be a shame for their entire nonrefundable trip to be wasted, he assured her, so you should still attend. She leaves with reluctance.

Being totally alone, she is forced to step beyond her comfort zone. Diana slowly establishes a relationship with a local family after a teenager who has a secret confides in her, despite her father’s mistrust of strangers.
The tale of January Jacobs, whose body was discovered in a ditch after her family discovered she was gone, is well known in Wakarusa, Indiana. Margot Davies and January were neighbors and were six years old at the time. Margot has since grown up, moved, and turned into a well-known journalist. She’s always been troubled by the possibility that she was to blame, though. The worst aspect is that no one has ever been made to pay for the murder of January.
When Margot returns home to help care for her uncle after learning that he has early-onset dementia, she feels as though she has slipped into a time capsule. She is aware of Wakarusa’s kindness, restraint, and secrecy.
Then, details emerge concerning Natalie Clark, a five-year-old from the neighboring town who vanishes under circumstances that appear frighteningly similar to those in January. As all the old feelings resurface, Margot vows to find Natalie and to definitively solve January’s murder.
However, it appears that everyone is hiding something, including the townspeople, Natalie’s family, and the police. In addition, the more resistance Margot encounters when looking into Natalie’s kidnapping, the more icier January’s case seems to be. Could the January homicide suspect still be at large? Is it the same person that kidnapped Natalie? And how much will it actually cost to learn the truth about what transpired that night, twenty years ago?
The Jacobite Rising in 1746 tore Jamie Fraser and Claire Randall apart, and it took them twenty years of grief and heartache to reunite. In the year 1779, Claire and Jamie have at last been reunited with their daughter Brianna, her husband Roger, and their children. They are currently rebuilding their home on Fraser’s Ridge—a stronghold that might protect them from both the weather and the winds of war.
But there are severe tensions in the Colonies: Even in the backcountry highlands, where battles are raging from New York to Georgia, emotions are heated enough to boil Hell’s teakettle. Jamie is aware that his tenants’ allegiances are divided and that the war will soon arrive at his door.
The threats that prompted Brianna and Roger to flee the twentieth century are something they are concerned about as well. They occasionally wonder if choosing to expose their family to the dangers of the 1700s—including sickness, famine, and an oncoming war—was really the wiser course of action.
