Lieutenant George Markham, a fierce Irishman with a reputation for causing trouble, leads his embattled Royal Marines against the French in Corsica. His mission is clear: to seize the island. However, Markham faces not just the French but also spies, traitors, and jealous rivals, including jealous husbands. Born as the bastard son of a Catholic father and a Protestant mother, Markham has a lot to prove. But as a seasoned veteran of wars in America and against the French, Markham has developed a hardness that many of his senior officers lack. This hardness earns him the respect and loyalty of his men, even though their officers consider them to be the scum of the earth.

With the support of these men, Markham embarks on a mission to persuade the legendary war hero Pasquali Paoli to unite the Corsicans behind him. However, their loyalty is torn by a legacy of vendettas, French bribery, and treachery. Enemies lurk in both French blue and British red, and Markham can only rely on the grim, taciturn Sergeant Rannoch and a man who owes Markham his life: Bellamy, an educated and black Marine. Honour Redeemed is a thrilling successor to A Shred of Honour in the gripping Markham of the Marines series, filled with intense action and a pulsating plot.
