Outline

Claire and Jamie’s daughter is stillborn, and a devastated Claire nearly dies from fever. With Jamie in the Bastille, Claire discovers that he duelled with Randall because he had discovered the English captain raping Fergus. Claire seeks mercy for Jamie from the king, who forces her to decide the fates of suspected “sorcerers” Master Raymond and St. Germain. She contrives to save them, but Raymond poisons St. Germain. Claire submits sexually to the king in exchange for Jamie’s freedom. She and Jamie reconcile, and they visit their daughter Faith’s grave before leaving Paris for Scotland.
