Colonel Leroux is killing Britain's most valuable spies, and it's up to Richard Sharpe to stop him. Thrust into the unfamiliar world of political and military intrigue, Sharpe must tangle with La Marquesa, a beguiling, extraordinarily beautiful woman whose embrace is as calculating as it is passionate. As she leads him through a maze of secrecy, cunning, and deception, Sharpe relentlessly pursues Leroux, determined to exact his revenge with the cold steel of his sword.

One of the best Sharpe adventures
Revisado: 12-31-23
Action, intrigue, mystery plus supurb narration compared to Rupert Farley, who ruins the Sharpe stories with his awful character voices and extreme volatility in volume.

Critically acclaimed, perennial New York Times bestselling author Bernard Cornwell (Agincourt, The Fort, the Saxon Tales) makes real history come alive in his breathtaking historical fiction. Praised as "the direct heir to Patrick O'Brian" (Agincourt, The Fort), Cornwell has brilliantly captured the fury, chaos, and excitement of battle as few writers have ever done—perhaps most vividly in his phenomenally popular novels following the illustrious military career of British Army officer Richard Sharpe during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

Don't Buy - Narrator Ruins Terrific Story
Revisado: 09-23-23
Don't buy this version. Rupert Farley's narration completely ruins Bernard Cornwell's wonderful and intriguing story. He literally whispers the narrative portions to the point you can't understand what he is saying, then jarringly switching to literally shouting the characters' dialog. Unlistenable. There is another version on Audible with much more even narration.

Lieutenant-Colonel Sharpe is a man with a reputation. Born in the gutter, raised a foundling, he joined the army 21 years ago, and it’s been his home ever since. He’s a loose cannon, but his unconventional methods make him a valuable weapon. So when, the dust still settling after the Battle of Waterloo, the duke of Wellington needs a favour, he turns to Sharpe.

Great story, poor narration
Revisado: 11-29-21
Welcome back, Sharpe! Intricate, fascinating and gripping story line right up there with Mr Cornwell's best in the Sharpe series, but most unfortunately detracted from by an ill suited narrator. Uneven voice modulation (one minute shouting loudly, another whispering inaudibly - especially the women), slurred articulation (at times it was hard to make out what he was saying), and, most important, wrong and annoying accent for Sharpe - Sharpe sounds dopey. Frederick Davidson got Sharpe's accent just right, not high born but still crisp and strong, reflecting Sharpe's increasing sophistication as a rising officer over the years. Mr Cornwell, please bring Sharpe back again with more brilliant stories but with a better and more suitable narrator.
