Plot summary

Jane is interviewed for a broadsheet, but refuses to provide the inquisitor with details, so he threatens her sister Fanny. William asks John to help Jane escape punishment. When John refuses, he asks for Jamie's assistance instead. During a rescue attempt, they discover that Jane has committed suicide. While convalescing, Claire dreams of Master Raymond. John visits Claire, and makes a truce with Jamie. In 1739, Roger is reunited with Brianna and the children, and she meets Laird Brian Fraser, her grandfather, who built Lallybroch for his late wife Ellen. Ian asks about returning to North Carolina, and Rachel reveals she is pregnant.

Jamie invites Fanny to live with them on Fraser's Ridge, and Claire comforts her. Fanny reveals that her mother's name was Faith, the same name as Claire's stillborn child. Fanny sings a song Faith taught her, which Claire recognises as the song she sang to her child, and Claire suspects her child may have actually lived.
