Sharpe's Fortress: Richard Sharpe and the Siege of Gawilghur, December 1803 Paperback - 2002
by Bernard Cornwell
The explosive grand finale of Richard Sharpe's adventure in India finds the defenders of the fortress of Gawilghur standing between Sharpe and his reputation, his honor, and a sultan's stolen jewels.
Summary
Promoted for his gallantry in the war against India's rebellious Mahratta confederacy, Richard Sharpe is uncomfortable with his newfound authority -- and embroiled in his own private campaign. The unmistakable scent of treason is leading him to Gawilghur, an impenetrable fortress in the sky and the last refuge of desperate enemies of all dark stripes. And as the army of Sir Arthur Wellesley, the future Duke of Wellington, prepares to lay siege to the stronghold high above the Deccan Plain, Sharpe will risk his honor, reputation, and fortune on a battle that will test him as never before.
First line
Richard Sharpe wanted to be a good officer.
From the rear cover
Be prepared for scenes of great action & heroic.
The sword hissed an inch behind the boy's neck."I said to leave him alone!"
Sharpe said. "Or do you want to fight me instead?"
"None of us," a calm voice said behind Sharpe, "wants to fight Ensign Sharpe."
Richard Sharpe.
Soldier, hero, rogue--the man you always want on your side. Born in poverty, he joined the army to escape jail and climbed the ranks by sheer brutal courage. He knows no other family than the regiment of the 95th Rifles, whose green jacket he proudly wears.
