Synopsis
In the tradition of Bernard Cornwell's bestselling Sharpe series comes the fourth novel in this powerful and vivid account of the Napoleonic campaigns. During four years of uneasy peace, France has seen many changes. Alain Lausard and his companions have become part of Bonaparte's Grand Army, an incredibly efficient fighting force capable of conquering Europe. But there are those who still oppose Bonaparte and his regime: several plots against his life are foiled, but one threatens to plunge France into anarchy. When the leading conspirator flees to Bavaria, Bonaparte dispatches Lausard and his dragoons to bring him back for trial. A hazardous enough mission in itself — but worse, it contravenes a neutrality act, giving Bonaparte's enemies the chance they have been looking for.
