Robbie Macgregor believes the long wars against France are ending and races back to England and the family life repeatedly interrupted by military service. A move to Sicily with Alan appears to offer a permanent change, but peace proves less secure than expected and an encounter with an old enemy shows that unfinished business has survived the apparent end of the conflict.

Napoleon’s return from Elba brings Europe back to war and draws experienced soldiers once more toward the decisive campaign of 1815. Robbie’s private pursuit and public duty converge as the political crisis moves toward Waterloo, where years of Napoleonic warfare are compressed into one final struggle.
