From New York Times bestselling author Bernard Cornwell, the tenth installment in the world-renownedÂ Sharpe series, chronicling the rise of Richard Sharpe, a Private in His Majestyâ€™s Army at the siege of Seringapatam.
Sharpeâ€™s job as Captain of the Light Company is under threat and he has made a new enemy, a Portuguese criminal known as Ferragus. Discarded by his regiment, Sharpe wages a private war against Ferragus â€“ a war fought through the burning, pillaged streets of Coimbra, Portugalâ€™s ancient university city.
Sharpeâ€™s Escape begins on the great, gaunt ridge of Bussaco where a joint British and Portuguese army meets the overwhelming strength of Marshall Massenaâ€™s crack troops. It finishes at Torres Vedras where the French hopes of occupying Portugal quickly die.
