WITH A NEW FOREWORD BY THE AUTHOR
Newly promoted, Major Richard Sharpe leads his small force into the biting cold of the winter mountains. His task is to rescue a group of well-born women held hostage by a rabble of deserters. And one of the renegades is Sergeant Hakeswill, Sharpe's most implacable enemy.

For to surrender - or to fail - would mean the end of the war for the Allied armies...
