Jack Lark Book 6

April, 1861. Jack Lark arrives in Boston as civil war storms across America. 

A hardened soldier, Jack has always gone where he was ordered to go - and killed the enemy he was ordered to kill. But when he becomes a sergeant for the Union army, he realises that this conflict between North and South is different. Men are choosing to fight - and die - for a cause they believe in. 

The people of Boston think it will take just one, great battle. But, with years of experience, Jack knows better. This is the beginning of something that will tear a country apart - and force Jack to see what he is truly fighting for.

Selected Praise

With the 1850s Collard chose the perfect time for his series, as there are major events taking place all over the world. It is just fascinating to experience them through Jack’s eyes and I cannot wait for the next books!
— Relatively Bookish
This is such a strong series, and while I have a soft spot for The Maharajah’s General, I do believe The True Soldier could be among the best.
