During the Peninsular War in Spain, Sergeant Richard Sharpe saves Arthur Wellesley—later the Duke of Wellington—and is promoted to lieutenant. Suspecting the French have captured Rothschild’s funds, Wellesley sends Sharpe behind enemy lines. Sharpe commands a rifle platoon led by Irishman Harper, with men Hagman and Harris, who resent his officer status.
