Kidnapped! Leah didn't trust Arthur and Lil one bit. It was Jack, with his captivating style and reckless nerve who wanted to look inside the camper van. And Charlie, being Charlie, had to copy, just to be the same as Jack. And, of course, it was Jack who found the jewels...After that there was no turning back. The three children are driven across country and dumped right in the middle of Dartmoor. Here in the wilderness they must learn to survive against a backdrop of desolate country and mounting personal conflict.
