After being forced aboard a ship, David meets the fiery Highland rebel Alan Breck Stewart. Together, they escape their kidnappers and find themselves caught up in a wild chase across the rugged landscape of the Scottish Highlands. With the King's soldiers hunting them and with dangerous Jacobite rebels around every corner, an unbreakable friendship starts between them. This fictional adventure, based on historical events, follows David's journey from boy to brave young man as he fights to claim what rightfully belongs to him.
