The missing prince / John Flanagan. - Australia : Random House Australia, 2020. - 294 pages ; 20 cm. - Ranger's apprentice. The royal ranger ; bk. 4 .

King Philippe of Gallica appeals to King Duncan for help. His son is being held hostage by a baron who is making demands. The Gallican King wants Duncan to send a Ranger to rescue the boy. Will and Maddie would be an ideal choice for the mission. They can pretend to be father and daughter to dispel suspicions, with Will posing as a jongleur and Maddie as a knife thrower. They'll travel to Chateau des Falaises and see if the rebel baron will demand they perform for him. If he doesn't, they'll break in some other way. But travelling through Gallica proves to have its own risks - armed bandits, treacherous royals, and even a mysterious follower. Will they ever find the prince? And if they do, how will they rescue him?
