Plot

Sharpe's Christmas: "...Richard Sharpe, commanding the Prince of Wale's Own Volunteers, finds himself in a high, hard place with an enemy brigade on one side and a desperate force of Frenchmen fleeing their defeat in Spain on the other. Common sense suggests that he must avoid a fight, but it is Christmastime, and miracles are supposed to happen at the dark heart of the year, and so Sharpe makes a stand, and in doing so ends up giving the enemy an unexpected gift."
