The Sun over Breda
Flanders, 1625. After his tussles with the Inquisition and the intrigue of the Spanish court, Captain Alatriste has returned to the mud and desperation of the long war in Flanders.

Meanwhile, the Captain's trusted friend Quevedo's star is rising at court, and he keeps Alatriste apprised of the machinations of his arch-enemy, Luis de Alquezar. Then news comes of a Dutch plan to alleviate the siege of Breda once and for all...
