Fiction. Literature. Thriller. Historical Fiction. HTML:NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Diana Gabaldon returns to her Outlander universe in “The Space Between,” an irresistible novella brimming with adventure, history, and suspense.
 
Features a preview of the much-anticipated new Outlander novel, Written in My Own Heart’s Blood!
 
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.

This book answers the question from the Outlander series about what happened to Master Raymond, The Compt de Germain, and the conception of Fergus, and the real reason why Joan wanted to be a nun.

Characters:
Joan (Jamie's stepdaughter who wants to be a nun)
Marcus McKenzy (Ian's son - the one whose wife died and is working for Jerod in France)
That Nun who worked with Claire in France at the hospital (the one in charge with the dog)
Master Raymond
The Compt de Germain (He didn't die in Dragonfly)
Jerod Frazier

Forgive me if the names are all wrong, but you get the idea. ( )

"The Space Between" brings together a few "travelers," postulant Joan MacKimmie (Jamie's step-daughter) and Michael Murray (young Ian's elder brother). Hijinks ensue. I wonder if Postulant Joan ever takes her vows. ( )

He is still morning his wife, when he escorts Joan to a nunnery. She hears voices and sees visions of that mark those about to die. Michael finds himself drawn to Joan. The beginning was very confusing, jumping from different characters in the story, but it slowly comes together.

Loved this - but really was left wanting much more!!! I wish this one was novel length! ( )

This is a novella ... and right at this moment it's the perfect distraction from a very long and technical book I'm reading.

I love the author's way of writing, and I love these little stories of the minor characters in her Outlander series. So naturally you can imagine that I enjoyed this book. In fact, I'm quite peeved that the story ended when it did - too many unresolved questions!

Lovely interlude though! ( )
