The story of Kidnapped takes place in 1751, six years after a fierce Scottish rebellion against King George. When modest 17-year-old David Balfour discovers that he may be the rightful heir to a rich estate, his greedy lowland Scottish uncle has him kidnapped to be sent to America as a slave. Accidentally joining forces with Alan Breck, a fiercely unrepentant Scottish rebel and soldier of fortune, David escapes his fate as a slave, but finds himself instead fleeing desperately across the Scottish highlands as a fugitive from unjust charges of political assassination
