Summary

Portugal 1826

Newly returned from India, Matthew Hervey joins a party of officers sent to lend support to the Portugese regent. But the Peninsula is a place redolent with memories.

As he prepares for battle once more, Hervey finds himself confronting ghosts from his past ...

'Captain Matthew Hervey is as splendid a hero as ever sprang from an
