Dear Mr. Cornwell, Am I delusional, or were in fact, both Harper and Frederickson killed in one of the earlier Sharpe novels? Would you please let me know which novel? I have no problem with poetic resurrection, I would just like to know. I am up to Sharpe’s Revenge and Sgt. Harper and Capt. Frederickson are both alive and well, hence the query. Many thanks for your response, and many thanks for your novels, C. Bowles
