Description

JACK LARK: SOLDIER, LEADER, IMPOSTER.

The fourth book in the compelling military adventure series for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Julian Stockwin and Jonathan Spencer.

'A gripping adventure from start to finish. Jack Lark might not be the hero anyone wants, but he's most definitely the hero you need!' Richard Cullen/R. S. Ford

'Brilliant' Bernard Cornwell

'Quite simply do yourself a favour and read these books' S.J.A. Turney

Bombay, 1857. India is simmering with discontent, and Jack Lark, honourably discharged from the British Army, aims to take the first ship back to England. But before he leaves, he cannot resist the adventure of helping a young woman escape imprisonment in a gaming house. He promises to escort Aamira home, but they arrive in Delhi just as the Indian Mutiny explodes.

As both sides commit horrific slaughter and the siege of Delhi begins, Jack realises that despite the danger he cannot stand by and watch. At heart, he is still a soldier...

The Lone Warrior is a scintillating tale of battle, adventure and courage.

Critic Reviews

“Collard ... evokes the horror of that era with great brio. Enthralling-- The Times”

Praise for the Jack Lark series: 'Brilliant' - Bernard Cornwell

I love a writer who wears his history lightly enough for the story he's telling to blaze across the pages like this. Jack Lark is an unforgettable new hero - Anthony Riches

It felt accurate, it felt real, it felt alive... Every line, every paragraph and page of the battles had me hooked, riveted to the page, there were times when I was almost as breathless as the exhausted soldiers - Parmenion Books

About the Author

Paul's love of military history started at an early age. A childhood spent watching films like Waterloo and Zulu whilst reading Sharpe, Flashman and the occasional Commando comic, gave him a desire to know more of the men who fought in the great wars of the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries. At school, Paul was determined to become an officer in the British army and he succeeded in winning an Army Scholarship. However, Paul chose to give up his boyhood ambition and instead went into the finance industry. Paul stills works in the City, and lives with his wife and three children in Kent.
