The Emperor's special envoy to Spain, the formidable Colonel Leroux has just uncovered the identity of the mysterious El Mirador — head of the largest spy network working against Napoleon from the city of Salamanca — when he is captured by Captain Richard Sharpe and his men.
Colonel Leroux manages to conceal his identity from them and, the very next day, escapes and takes refuge in the nearby city of Salamanca, which British and Spanish troops are completing their encirclement of. But the Frenchman's identity is soon discovered, and his capture becomes an absolute priority for the British command. Richard Sharpe receives orders — once the assault on the three French fortresses of Salamanca has been launched — to lay hands again on this man capable of bringing down the entire British spy network. A mission in which he will have to reckon with the influence of the mysterious Marquesa de Casares el Grande y Melida Sabada, a woman as beautiful as she is formidable, and whose outcome will culminate in the Battle of the Arapiles, in the height of July 1812.
