Major Sharpe is teamed with Brand, now a Colonel renowned for leading a small band of soldiers operating far behind enemy lines. Wellington (<a href="/wiki/Hugh_Fraser_(actor)" title="Hugh Fraser (actor)">Hugh Fraser</a>) assigns them the task of blowing up a store of gunpowder vital to French General Calvet (Olivier Pierre). To do this, they need the expertise of explosives expert Major Septimus Pyecroft (<a href="/wiki/Nigel_Betts" title="Nigel Betts">Nigel Betts</a>). Major General Ross (<a href="/wiki/James_Laurenson" title="James Laurenson">James Laurenson</a>), Wellington's head of <a href="/wiki/Military_intelligence" title="Military intelligence">military intelligence</a>, will accompany them to evaluate Calvet's intentions. </p><p>Meanwhile, a <a href="/wiki/Romani_people" title="Romani people">Gypsy</a> family stumbles upon a secret meeting between a French colonel and a masked Colonel Brand, with one of his men. The interrupted plotters pursue and kill the Gypsies, except for a young woman, Zara (<a href="/w/index.php?title=Berrin_Politi&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Berrin Politi (page does not exist)">Berrin Politi</a>), who manages to hide. Afterwards, she starts to bury her dead parents, only to flee when another masked man appears. However, it turns out to be Pyecroft, whose face was disfigured by a bomb accident. He digs the graves and takes Zara under his protection. </p><p>In the British encampment, Zara spots one of her family's horses and tells Pyecroft that the murderers spoke English; the next day, three gypsies, with whom Zara was to have stayed, are found <a href="/wiki/Garrotte" class="mw-redirect" title="Garrotte">garrotted</a>. Sharpe's suspicions are aroused by the unexplained deaths and Brand's assumption that 'Pyecroft's gypsy' was among them. At this point, rifleman Harris (<a href="/wiki/Jason_Salkey" title="Jason Salkey">Jason Salkey</a>) is prime suspect and assigned to Sharpe's household while awaiting trial. </p><p>As their joint mission unfolds, Sharpe realises that Brand is a traitor and French spy, luring them in order to trap Ross for his knowledge of Wellington's plans. </p><p>Forewarned, Sharpe is able to turn the tables on the turncoat. After Sharpe's men capture the fort where the gunpowder is stored, he has Ross convene a <a href="/wiki/Court-martial" title="Court-martial">court-martial</a>, in which Brand is convicted and sentenced to death. Fearing that Brand's influential friends may be able to overturn the verdict, Sharpe conducts an impromptu execution by pushing the traitor into a deep well. The British blow up the gunpowder and escape, while Brand's men are given the opportunity to redeem themselves by acting as a rear guard to hold off the attacking French forces. </p><p>However, all is not well for Sharpe. His wife <a href="/wiki/Jane_Gibbons" class="mw-redirect" title="Jane Gibbons">Jane</a> (Abigail Cruttenden) is becoming more and more dissatisfied with his career as a soldier. Nonetheless, a would-be seducer (journalist Shellington) is foiled by Harris, acting as manservant. Pyecroft and Zara become engaged. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a
