The British Empire needs a man to satisfy insatiable lust and match lies with a master of treachery and never be caught acting like a gentlemen. Fortunately, it has Harry Flashman.
Yes, history's most unheroic hero is back - to deal with a ravaishing (quite literally) maharani and her equally sex-hungry maid...to join forces with an American adventurer with royal ambitions...to refuse to let loyalty affect his allegiance to self-preservation...and to win the brightest jewel in England's imperial crown at he cost of something he will never miss - namely, honor.
Vain, lecherous Victorian soldier of fortune Harry Flashman goes to the Punjab for his ninth reprehensible yet shamelessly enjoyable adventure. More than 100,000 copies of the Plume Flashman series are in print. (Apr.)
