Can her gift light the way in the darkest moment?

Ever since following her sister into the past, Louisa Sheridan's world has been torn between two centuries. As a woman out of time, she has found love and family in colonial Virginia with her husband, Kit, and their children. But this life is threatened when Kit falls deathly ill, and Louisa faces an impossible choice: try to treat him with the resources available, or risk a journey back to the twenty-first century.

As her extended family faces turmoil and challenges in their own lives, Louisa turns to her beloved sister, Valerie, for help. While Kit hovers between life and death, Louisa prays that her family's gift will be the answer. But as each minute slips away, will the gap in time bring salvation for her family, or will they be torn apart forever...?

The Ties that Bind is the final epic instalment in the saga of the Whitfields and the Sheridans. A deeply moving story of love, loss and life-altering choices, perfect for fans of Diana Gabaldon, Barbara Erskine and Susanna Kearsley.
