About this ebook
The final original novel in the electrifying The Next Generation/Deep Space Nine crossover event!
Following the resolution of the fertility crisis that nearly caused their extinction, the Andorian people now stand ready to rejoin the United Federation of Planets. The return of one of its founding member worlds is viewed by many as the first hopeful step beyond the uncertainty and tragedy that have overshadowed recent events in the Alpha Quadrant. But as the Federation looks to the future and the special election to name President Bacco’s permanent successor, time is running out to apprehend those responsible for the respected leader’s brutal assassination. Even as elements of the Typhon Pact are implicated for the murder, Admiral William Riker holds key knowledge of the true assassins—a revelation that could threaten the fragile Federation-Cardassian alliance.
Questions and concerns also continue to swell around Bacco’s interim successor, Ishan Anjar, who uses the recent bloodshed to further a belligerent, hawkish political agenda against the Typhon Pact. With the election looming, Riker dispatches his closest friend, Captain Jean-Luc Picard, in a desperate attempt to uncover the truth. But as Picard and the Enterprise crew pursue the few remaining clues, Riker must act on growing suspicions that someone within Ishan’s inner circle has been in league with the assassins from the very beginning...

Concentrated light could be the fuel for Starfleet's 100 or more ships; adequate helium is easier. Hover craft have speed limits meaning the ends are locked. The books spacecraft don't exit Earth's atmosphere keeping science short spoken. When the stars are out it the dark; they probably have a cloud covering the bottom half of its light. Using they top half of a light only has a normal shadow where natural colors return. While the bottom is the light provider colors dull or bright implying murders & body parts around producing insects and bugs. Star Trek includes tidy killings with the fleets hand-held weapons; but most are mounted. Staff always knows death counts as a communication broken within English; so restores it with the right words to eliminate the tangent. They always return to the calendar scheduled subject are relaxing book endings.

Only downside is that it should have been longer. Alas, we will have to wait.
