Hi Mr. Cornwell. With regards to Sharpe’s father, could there be any possibility that Hakeswill could be Sharpe’s father?? Just putting it out there or is that possibility just too cruel? Incidentally have you seen Sharpe’s Peril? what did you think about the inclusion of Hakeswill’s son? Thanks keep well and keep writing. Rob

With the exception of the Starbuck books, I have spent many wakeful hours speeding to end of your tales. The American Civil War never has held my attention. Either Crispin or Crispinian whispered Sharpe’s father’s name& Obadiah Hakeswill.
