I have endured much of GabaldonвЂ™s long-winded and detailed writing. This is the final instalment in the Outlander collection to date. Filling a few cracks in the Outlander storylines, this short story fits nicely, yet leaves much to the imagination. Returning to modern times, Jerry comes across his wife, Marjorie, but is not in a position to reach her to discuss his revelations.

When he comes across a mysterious character, a little is revealed, including how to get back, but no clear understanding of the Stones is made known. As Jerry seeks to get his bearings, he discovers that heвЂ™s been propelled into the past, but has no explanation for events. While out on reconnaissance, Jerry develops engine trouble and crash lands somewhere in Northumbria.

Spitfire pilot Jerry MacKenzie is approached by MI6 (and Frank Randall no less) to help in the execution of a covert mission behind the Iron Curtain. Gabaldon chooses this point to offer a real account of events, just in time as Outlander fans are surely tearing their hair out with wonder, as the cliffhanger found no resolution within Written in My Own HeartвЂ™s Blood. With Roger finally encountering Jerry in 1739, something must have happened related to the Stones, but the story is again not flushed out.

What ever happened to Jerry MacKenzie, father of Roger, whose plane went down during the War effort? As Gabaldon mentions in the storyвЂ™s preface, discussion of Jerry opened in An Echo in the Bone, where Claire admitted that the story Roger knew was not entirely true.
