Major Schaefer Dutch (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is the leader of a military rescue unit looking for allies captured by guerrillas in the Latin American jungle. At first, it seems like any other mission: Schaefer and his team of seasoned combat veterans spot a guerilla camp, destroy it, and find the men they were sent to rescue executed. But when Schaefer attempts to lead his unit out, with a captured guerrilla in tow, something horrifying and inexplicable begins to happen: One by one the men are killed by a mysterious adversary – a predator from another world.

A novel that's not so much about the fictional Richard Sharpe, than it is about the hostorical Battle of Waterloo. Along with Austerlitz, this is, of course, probably the most famous battle of the Napoleonic wars, where Sir Arthur Wellesley (the future Duke of Wellington) Allied Anglo-Dutch army defeated the might of France and brought to an end those wars which had raged for years and years!

It's no surprise, therefore, that Cornwell has perhaps his most famous protaganist caught up in the events leading up to the battle, and then in the thick of the battle itself!
