Kidnapped

The Adventures of David Balfour

The story follows young David Balfour, a recently orphaned Scottish boy who journeys to claim his inheritance from his miserly uncle, Ebenezer. Instead of helping him, his uncle betrays him and sells him into captivity aboard a ship bound for the American colonies. After a shipwreck on the wild Scottish coast, David escapes and becomes entangled in the turbulent political aftermath of the Jacobite rising.
