About this listen

Things are looking up for Major Matthew Hervey: news of a handsome legacy should allow him to purchase command of his beloved regiment, the 6th Light Dragoons. He is resolved to marry, and, rather to his surprise, the object of his affections - the widow of the late Sir Ivo Lankester - has readily consented. But he hasn't reckoned with the opportunism of a fellow officer with ready cash in hand.©2006 Alan Mallinson (P)2006 W F Howes Ltd Action & Adventure Fiction Genre Fiction Historical Fiction Literary Fiction Imperialism British Empire

Critic reviews

"A damn fine, rip-roaring read." ( Literary Review)
