Synopsis
After his father dies, David Balfour is told to go to his uncle for his inheritance. But the uncle has no intention of letting the riches go—so he plots to kill Balfour, ultimately arranging for him to be kidnapped as a slave bound for the American colonies. Balfour's future looks bleak—until he witnesses a shipwreck and befriends the lone survivor, a rugged Highlander named Alan Breck Stewart. Together, they plan their rebellion—and the fight back home to claim Balfour's inheritance.
Spirited, romantic, and full of danger, Kidnapped is Robert Louis Stevenson's classic of high adventure."Crossley reads this tale as its author might have. Adept at the language of the region and times, Crossley deftly brings one of literature's best-known stories to the ears of contemporary listeners." ---AudioFile
