During the British campaign against Tipu Sultan and the kingdom of Mysore, Sharpe becomes caught up in military danger, espionage and conflict with his own superiors as British forces advance towards Seringapatam.  Set against the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War, the novel combines fast-paced historical adventure with battlefield action and political intrigue. Sharpe's courage, intelligence and determination offer him a possible route beyond the lowest ranks of the British Army, establishing the character and military world that develop throughout Bernard Cornwell's long-running Sharpe series. The story introduces the early career of one of historical fiction's best-known soldiers without revealing the outcome of his personal conflicts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216700916051,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421254762835,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/sharpes-tiger-deluxe-folio-society-2557","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
