Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped has long been considered a
masterpiece of high adventure. In The Low Road, James Lear
reinvents this classic as a satirical, queer, coming-of-age story.
In 1705 Scotland, young Charles Gordon reaches adulthood ignorant
of his family's heroic past in the Jacobite Rebellion. He sets out
to discover the truth about his father, but instead is kidnapped by
mercenaries and sold into slavery as the plaything of a group of
corrupt military officials. But Charlie's talents, in and out of
bed, win him powerful friends as well as dangerous foes. The false
priest, Lebecque, violent Captain Robert, depraved General Wilmott
-- all contribute to Charlie's "education." Eventually leading a
makeshift army of sex-crazed layabouts, Charlie faces the might of
the English forces. Will he triumph, or is it better to retreat to
the safety of his sybaritic lifestyle? James Lear expertly
interweaves spies and counterspies, scheming servants and sadistic
captains, tavern trysts and prison orgies, into this delightfully
erotic work that can take its place alongside his acclaimed novels
The Back Passage and Hot Valley.
