Some 30+ years ago, middle to late 1980ies, I was given a book I never came around to finish reading. Mostly, because I thought it was boring.
A boy, whose parent are rich, maybe aristocratic, is kidnapped. First he is transported in a car or van, later he is brought on a river boat.
As far I remember the setting is contemporary Britain.
Maybe the book was written for children/teens …
Hmm. Does this meager description ring any bells?
Thanks!
