Dear Mr Cornwell,

Is Sharpe’s Ransom available as an e-book yet? I searched the internet and itunes bookstore but can only find a hard copy duo with Sharpe’s Christmas, which I have just read as an e-book. By the way, I love Richard Sharpe and think it a great shame that Sean Bean didn’t wear a black wig and fake scar for the role.

Why couldn’t Richard go to London and take his money back from Jane, and what happened to her and her baby? I expected her to turn up with a French or Spanish officer who Richard would have to despatch to either heaven or hell. I promise not sue you if you use that idea in a future Sharpe book so be sure to keep this e-mail as evidence.

Many thanks for hours of enjoyable reading.

Vicki
