The Raj is under threat...

1823

For nearly eight years Major John Bold has been in exile in India, fighting many minor wars in command of his native cavalry regiment for the East India Company's Army.

Now, as the Governor-General and his staff celebrate Christmas in Calcutta with iced champagne and Bass pale ale, the greatest threat ever posed to British India commences.

On Christmas Day, the all-powerful mysterious ruler of Burma, the Lord of the Golden Foot and White Elephant, begins his attack on the Raj.

Bold is on reconnaissance at an outpost when he is caught in the first Burmese attack. Hopelessly outnumbered, he finds himself imprisoned in the golden temple of Rangoon with the old lord demanding he betray the Indian army.

But Bold is determined to escape and to lead the charge against the invaders.

With harsh weather conditions, hostile terrain and the fanatical Burmese fighters to contend with, it will take nothing short of a miracle for Bold and his men to win the day...

SABRES IN THE SUN is the second book in the Major John Bold military series: action-packed historical adventures from the 19th century following the fortunes of a soldier of the East India Company during the early days of the expanding British Empire.
