Summary
:
It's 1809, and the powerful French juggernaut is sweeping across Spain. Lieutenant Richard Sharpe is newly in command of the demoralized, distrutful men of the 95th Rifles. He must lead them to safety -- and the only way of escape is a treacherous trek through the enemy-infested mountains of Spain.
Blas Vivar and his band of intrepid Spanish officers may prove to be their salvation. But Vivar is transporting a mysterious chest that he claims can shift the tides of war, and the French are determined to get it -- no matter the cost.
