STOLEN is the story of a young woman who comes back to her village to find everyone - with the exception of Elinor from the Workhouse for Abandoned and Unwanted Children - killed or carried off by Barbary corsairs to the slave markets in Morocco.
The 17th century was a cruel age, and it takes incredilble courage and strong determination for Lizbet not only to survive, but to set about finding her parents.

"This is a fast-paced tale that rather put me in mind of Daphne du Maurier in terms of the storytelling and characterisation. There is plenty of action in this novel, but – like du Maurier at her best – Dalton offers something more substantial than mere bodice-ripping yarn"

"in a series of deftly handled flashbacks, this novel successfully juggles themes involving relationships, commitment, professional jealousy, and helplessness in the face of international issues." - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

"The protagonist's dark past - not to mention the book's focus on international issues, professional jealousy and journalistic crusading - is akin to Larsson's Lizbet Salander." QUILL & QUIRE
