The fiery cross / Diana Gabaldon.

Gabaldon, Diana, (author.).

Summary:

In 1771, Scotsman James Fraser and his wife Claire Randall, a time-traveler from the twentieth century, have emigrated to the Royal County of North Carolina. Dissidents are stirring throughout the colonies. Claire forewarns James of the impendng war and the dangers it may bring them. Will her knowledge of America's tumultuous revolution be enough to guide them through a dangerously uncertain future?
The year is 1771, and war is coming. Jamie Fraser's wife tells him so. Little as he wishes to, he must believe her, for hers is a gift of dreadful prophecy - a time traveler's certain knowledge. Claire's unique point of view of the future has brought him to both danger and deliverance in the past; her knowldge of the oncoming revolution is a flickering torch that may light his way through the perilous years ahead - or ignite a conflagration that will leave their lives in ashes.
