Summary
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 Cádiz has… fallen to the invader. Captain Richard Sharpe has no business being in Cádiz but finds himself in a city under French siege, attempting to defeat a blackmail attempt by Spaniards who want to break the alliance with Britain and forge a friendship with Napoléon's France-diabolical plans that only Sharpe can thwart. Sequel to "Sharpe's escape". Followed by "Sharpe's battle" (DC17506). Some descriptions of sex, descriptions of violence, and strong language. 2006. (Richard Sharpe ; 11)
