Summary
A year has passed since the Battle of Waterloo, and as an Indian Maharaja begins threatening British interests Sharpe (Sean Bean) is sent on his most treacherous mission to date. Assigned the thankless task of investigating the ominous rumors, Sharpe quickly discovers that the last scout, his own close companion Sergeant Harper, has gone missing. As reports begin to surface that East India Company Officer Colonel Dodd is actually the malcontent organizing the uprisings, Sharpe desperately tries to gain access into the Maharaja's impenetrable fortress. Upon gaining entry, however, Sharpe soon finds his plan taking an unanticipated turn for the worse. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
