Hello, Mr Cornwell, I’m from Glasgow and I’m using my wife’s e-mail address to contact you right now. I’ve admired and been fascinated by your books for many years, particularly the Sharpe Series, the Starbuck Chronicles and Azincourt. One thing puzzles me though, why the screenplay of Sharpe’s Mission wasn’t converted into a book, just like Sharpe’s Battle. The story could be expanded from the TV film and potentially become one of Sharpe’s most epic adventures. Please consider bringing this to fruition and making a 55 year old very happy. Thank you kindly.
