New York Times bestselling author Bernard Cornwell returns to the early years of the nineteenth century, capturing the bravery, battles, and bloodshed of Britain’s peninsular wars with this epic tale of historical fiction featuring his iconic hero Richard Sharpe.
Outsider.
Hero.
Rogue.
If any man can do the impossible it’s Richard Sharpe.
And the impossible is exactly what the formidable Captain Sharpe is asked to do when he’s sent on a dangerous mission of espionage to a small village in the Spanish countryside, far behind enemy lines.
For the quiet, remote village, sitting high above the Almaraz bridge, is about to become the center of a battle for the future of Europe. Two French armies march towards the bridge, one from the North and one from the South. If they meet, the British are lost.
Only Sharpe’s small band of riflemen—with their cunning and courage to rely on—stand in their way. But they’re rapidly outnumbered, enemies are hiding in plain sight, and as the French edge ever closer to the frontline, time is running out….
