    About this audiobook

    When the naive David Balfour sets out on his quest for a long-lost relative, a terrifying chain of events is set in motion. He is plunged into a world of infamy and violence from which there seems no escape, until, that is, he meets the enigmatic and valiant Highlander, Alan Breck… Kidnapped is a captivating novel set around Scottish events of the 18th century, most notably the 'Appin Murder', the case of a highlander who was wrongly implicated in the shooting of a government official.

    • 5/5
      A nice piece of classic literature with great voiceover talent to bring it to life.
