During the retreat to Corunna in 1809, Sharpe and a group of riflemen are cut off from the British army and surrounded by French cavalry. His men distrust his authority and consider abandoning him, but an alliance with the Spanish officer Blas Vivar gives them a new purpose. Pursued across Galicia, they attempt to carry a sacred banner to Santiago de Compostela and provide the Spanish resistance with a public victory.
