Kidnapped is a historical fiction adventure novel by Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson, written as a "boys' novel" and first published in the magazine Young Folks from May to July 1886.

The novel is set around 18th-century Scottish events, notably the "Appin Murder", which occurred near Ballachulish in 1752 in the aftermath of the Jacobite rising of 1745.

Many of the characters were real people, including one of the principals, Alan Breck Stewart.

The political situation of the time is portrayed from different viewpoints, and the Scottish Highlanders are treated sympathetically.
