Catriona / David Balfour
by Robert Louis Stevenson
Catriona (David Balfour) is the sequel to The Kidnapped, and begins at the exact moment when Robert Louis Stevenson's more famous book ends – from Balfour to Edinburgh, standing cold and regretful outside the offices of the British Linen Company. From there, a fascinating series of adventures begins, in which we see our eponymous hero as a constant burgundy on a remote island where he fights for his life with his former comrade Alan Beck, fights for his life with his former comrade Alan Breck and finds time to fall in love with the energetic and beautiful Catriona, the granddaughter of Rob Roy, the grandson of the infamous 'Highland Rogue'.
