Publisher's Summary

Colonel Leroux is killing Britain's most valuable spies, and it's up to Richard Sharpe to stop him. Thrust into the unfamiliar world of political and military intrigue, Sharpe must tangle with La Marquesa, a beguiling, extraordinarily beautiful woman whose embrace is as calculating as it is passionate. As she leads him through a maze of secrecy, cunning, and deception, Sharpe relentlessly pursues Leroux, determined to exact his revenge with the cold steel of his sword.

Rupert Farley

The Sharpe series is narrated by Rupert Farley. He is one of the best narrators on Amazon audio. This included novel is ok , I guess , same story. I listen to the whole series. I tried to get used to a different voice for Sharpe and other characters, I’ve got use too. I recommend start with the first book ( in chronological order ) . With Rupert Farley as narrator. Unless you want to save coin .

Excellent

Cornwell is always a good read mixing facts with some fictional accounts to come up with a dramatic story
