Synopsis: |
1807. Lieutenant Richard Sharpe wants to leave the army. One last job is offered to him. Go to Copenhagen, deliver a bribe and so stop a war. It seems easy. But nothing is easy in a Europe stirred by French ambitions. The Danes possess a fleet that could replace every warship the French lost at Trafalgar, and Napoleon's forces are gathering to seize it. The British have to stop them, while the Danes insist on being neutral. |
