In this installment in the long and eventful career of his perennial hero, Bernard Cornwell sends Captain Sharpe to Portugal, where he must protect the city of Lisbon from the ravening French army under Napoleon. Before long, not only the French but a pair of murderous Portuguese brothers are out for his blood. As if that’s not enough, a sleazy lieutenant is trying to advance himself by seriously undermining Sharpe’s position in the army.
