Captain Daniel Rawson Â- Adventurer, spy, charmer...
It is 1704 and Europe is at war
 Take this sword as you own and wear it with more honour than
the man from whom you took it'
With Lord Churchill's words ringing in his ears, the courageous
young Captain Daniel Rawson embarks on a dangerous mission to lead
his men into battle against the French enemy. He must succeed at all
costs- the future of England is at stake.
But Rawson is the target of the murderous General Salignac who will
stop at nothing to see his adversary dead. As Rawson and his men
march across the continent, he must keep one step ahead of
Salignac's brigands and live to fight heroically at the Battle of Blenheim.
