Book
Whose Business Is to Die
First published 2015
Iberia, 1811. Wellington’s army has pushed the French back from Portugal, but the British and their allies must move onto the offensive before the enemy regroups. Hamish Williams sees the campaign as a chance to restore his honour and earn promotion.
The fighting leads to Albuera, one of the bloodiest battles of the Peninsular War. The novel places the 106th Foot inside a contest where tactical success is almost indistinguishable from destruction and where survival may be too fragile to count as victory.
