In the stark, wind-swept landscapes of 18th century Scotland, amidst the throes of the Jacobite Rebellion, unfolds the riveting tale of Kidnapped. Young David Balfour, fueled by the promise of a rightful inheritance, finds himself at the doorstep of his uncle's desolate Scottish abode. But his hopeful journey takes a dark turn as his own kin attempts to murder him, only to shanghai him onto a ship destined for the colonies, where he is to be sold into slavery. Amidst the turmoil, David crosses paths with the charismatic and elusive Alan Breck, a fugitive Jacobite rebel still smoldering from Bonnie Prince Charlie's defeat at Culloden. When the ship's ruthless Captain sets his sights on Breck's fortune, a desperate fight for survival commences. Outwitting death, the unlikely duo escapes to land, setting their sights on the distant spires of Edinburgh. In a country held under the iron grip of the Redcoats, they embark on a perilous journey, their every step shadowed by relentless pursuers. Kidnapped weaves a captivating tale of treachery, bravery and unlikely friendships, set against the tumultuous backdrop of a nation on the brink of revolution.
