Dear Mr. Cornwell, As a writer you have the prerogative to change your ideas, look at the possibilities if Gen Baird was really Sharpe’s father! He lived up till 1829.The girl in Cat Lane could have left clues you know. Don’t get me wrong I don’t presume to tell you what to write in your books. I already told you I’m slightly addicted to Sharpe’s adventures!
