If there was one thing Sharpe was a dab hand at, it was keeping up a proper front, as good as any gentle-born officer.

He’d displayed no emotion to the Frogs who’d captured him; he’d sneered at the bastards who'd pushed, shoved, and kicked him all the way to a filthy, dung-smelling cell.

But now he knelt bound on the damp, chill floor of a French encampment. Pierre Ducos delicately touched Sharpe’s cheek in a mocking parody of tenderness, and then smiled at what he saw.

Ducos, it was rumored, had a reputation.

For Christ’s sake, Pat, he thought. Hurry.
