About the book

The war against france and Napoleon continues Wellington ready to launch an ultimate attack, but he must keep powerful french forces from pressing his flank and Sharpe ends up in the middle of a subterfuge plot that only a lucky soldier like him could possibly survive, especially when he is saddled by a glory hogging and as usual, incompetent officer.

First sentence: It was ten days short of Candlemas, 1814, and an Atlantic wind carried shivers of cold rain that slapped on narrow cobbled alleys, spilt from the broken gutters of tangled roofs, and pitted the water of St Jean de Luz's inner harbour.
