  • "In the winter of 1811 the war seemed lost. All Spain has fallen to the French, except for Cadiz which is now the Spanish capital and is under siege. Wellington and his British army are in Portugal, waiting for spring to spark the war to life again. Richard Sharpe and his company are part of a small expeditionary force sent to break a bridge across the River Guadiana. What begins as a brilliant piece of soldiering turns into disaster, thanks to the brutal savagery of the French Colonel Vandal who is leading his battalion to join the siege of Cadiz. Sharpe extricates a handful of men from the debacle and is driven south into the threatened city. There, in Cadiz, he discovers more than one enemy."@en

  • "The year is 1811, and the French appear to have won their war in Portugal and Spain. The British army is penned into a small part of Portugal, while all of Spain except for the sea-wrapped city of Cadiz has fallen to the invader. Captain Richard Sharpe has no business being in Cadiz but finds himself in a city under French siege, attempting to defeat a blackmail attempt. Some strong descriptions of sex, descriptions of violence, and strong language."@en
  • "Captain Sharpe finds himself in Cadiz, where his aid is enlisted by diplomat Henry Wellesley, the Duke of Wellington's younger brother. It seems embarrassing love letters written by Wellesley have fallen into crooked hands, and it would be prudent to steal them back. More problematic is the approaching French army, which threatens to obliterate its outnumbered English foe. Led by Sir Thomas Graham, Sharpe and his men soon find themselves embroiled in one of England's greatest victories."
