"If any man can do the impossible it's Richard Sharpe... And the impossible is exactly what the formidable Major Sharpe is asked to do when he's dispatched on an undercover mission deep in the Spanish countryside. For a remote village is about to become the center of a battle for the future of Europe. Sitting high above the Almaraz bridge, it is the last link between two French armies, one in the north, the other to the south; if they meet, the British are doomed. Only Sharpe's small group of men--with their cunning and courage to rely on--stand in their way. But they're rapidly outnumbered, enemies are hiding in plain sight, and time is running out..."--Dust jacket flap.
