An action-packed historical adventure from Bernard Cornwell's
enthralling series on the Napoleonic Wars.
A daring, impossible mission might just be their last hope.
A year after the victory at Talavera, things are looking bleak. With
Wellington outnumbered, the bankrupt army's only hope of avoiding
collapse is a hidden cache of Portuguese gold. Only Captain Richard
Sharpe is capable of stealing it--and it means turning against his own
men.
