Summary

A true leader serves his men.

The Jack Lark series is historical military fiction at its finest, for fans of Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe series, Matthew Harffy and Patrick O'Brian. This is the 10th adventure featuring Jack Lark: soldier, leader, imposter.

Egypt, 1869. Jack Lark has reinvented himself once more. Working as an unofficial agent for the consul-general, he moves among the most powerful men in Cairo. But when the opportunity arises to join legendary explorer Sir Samuel White Baker on his expedition into the Sudan, Jack can't resist a new adventure.

Jack assumes command of an elite cadre to protect the fleet of vessels. But, as they move down the Nile, Jack and his men soon find themselves in a land where the rule of law means nothing and those who wield power will do anything to keep it. And when a new friend seeks Jack's help, Jack must decide where his loyalties truly lie....

Critic reviews

"Like all the best vintages Jack Lark has aged to perfection. Scarred, battered and bloody, his story continues to enthral." (Anthony Riches)

Recording Quality

Volume inconsistent level intermittently dropping away. Halfway through sound quality becoming tinny and flat sounding.
