The third novel in this brilliant Napoleonic series from acclaimed
historian, Adrian Goldsworthy. The third novel in the series sees
new challenges for the men of the 106th Foot, as the British army
attempts to recover from the disaster of Corunna and establish a
foothold in the Peninsula. Featuring the battles of Medellin and
Talavera, the 106th will have their mettle severely tested on the
battlefield. But if Napoleon is to be ejected from Spain, war must
also be waged in more covert ways. For Hanley, the former artist
who is a more natural observer than fighter, the opportunity to
become an 'exploring officer' leads him into even more dangerous
territory, the murky world of politics and partisans. And while
Ensign Williams seeks to uncover the identity of the mysterious
'Heroine of Saragossa', a conspiracy of revenge within the regiment
itself threatens to destroy him before he's even faced a shot from
the French.
