The seventeenth Sharpe novel sees Sharpe returning from India to London to join the newly formed Green Jackets. Soldier, hero, rogue - Sharpe is the man you always want on your side. Born in poverty, he joined the army to escape jail and climbed the ranks by sheer brutal courage. He knows no other family than the regiment of the 95th Rifles whose green jacket he proudly wears. In this adventure, Sharpe is on his way home from India. He is sailing with the Royal Navy, who are hunting a formidable French warship, the 'Revenant', carrying a secret treaty that may prove lethal to the British. The 'Revenant' makes it to the safety of the French and Spanish fleets off Cadiz, and it seems Sharpe's enemies have found safety. Yet over the horizon is another fleet, led by Nelson, and Sharpe's revenge will come in a savage climax when the two armadas meet on a calm October day off Cape Trafalgar.

This book is one volume in Bernard Cornwell's twenty-four book series of historical novels that detail the adventures of Richard Sharpe, an English soldier during the Napoleonic Wars. The original first eleven books written detailed Sharpe's adventures in various battles of the Peninsular War campaigns of Arthur Wellesley, later Duke of Wellington, over the course of 6-7 years. Subsequently, Cornwell wrote a "prequel" quintet depicting Sharpe's adventures under Wellington's earlier command in India; and, a sequel set six years after the end of the Napoleonic wars. Since writing the first eleven books in the series, Cornwell has completed further "missing adventures" set during the Peninsular War era, for a total of twenty-four novels, to date. "Sharpe's Trafalgar" is chronologically the fourth prequel novel. In the series, Cornwell's historical fiction writing is reminiscent of that of C.S. Forester in his naval novels set in the same time period. Like Forester, he views the actual historical events of his novels as the big story, and the fictional plot as the little story. The combination is eminently readable and compelling.
