โœฆ Synopsis


Richard Sharpe and the French invasion of Galicia, January 1809.

In the bitter winter of 1809 the French are winning the war in Spain and Britainโ€ฒs forces are retreating towards Corunna, with Napoleonโ€ฒs victorious armies in pursuit. Lieutenant Richard Sharpe and a detachment of Riflemen are cut off from the British army and surrounded by enemy troops. Their only hope of escape is to accept the help of an unlikely ally, a Spanish cavalry officer, Major Blas Vivar.

Unknown to Sharpe, the Spaniard harbours a desperate and quixotic ambition which will lead to a suicidal assault on the holy city of Santiago de Compostela and a savage fight agains overwhelming French numbers. Sharpeโ€ฒs determination must be tested to its limit if victory is to be snatched from disaster
