Sobre este título
Bombay, 1857. Jack Lark is living precariously as an officer when his heroic but fraudulent past is discovered by the Devil - Major Ballard, the army's intelligence officer. Ballard is gathering a web of information to defend the British Empire, and he needs a man like Jack on his side. Not far away, in Persia, the Shah is moving against British territory and, with the Russians whispering in his ear, seeks to conquer the crucial city of Herat. The Empire's strength is under threat and the army must fight back.
As the British march to war, Jack learns that secrets crucial to the campaign's success are leaking into their enemies' hands. Ballard has brought him to the battlefield to end a spy's deceit. But who is the traitor?
THE DEVIL'S ASSASSIN sweeps Jack Lark through a thrilling tale of explosive action as the British face the Persian army in the inky darkness of the desert night.

Resumo da Crítica
Brilliant (Bernard Cornwell on THE SCARLET THIEF)
Savage, courageous, and clever
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 on THE SCARLET THIEF)
The spirit of Sharpe lives again in another time, in another war, in the guise of Jack Lark
A confident, rich and exciting novel that gave me all the ingredients I would want for a historical adventure of the highest order
The Devil's Assassin could well have been a Sharpe tale . . . Collard has become one of the most readable figures in historical fiction
