Long before Captain Jean-Luc Picard took command of the legendary
"Starship Enterprise, (TM)" he fell deeply and hopelessly in love
with Doctor Beverly Crusher. Though, for one reason or another,
Picard never acted on his feelings, he found a measure of
contentment as Beverly's close friend, colleague, and daily
breakfast partner.
But when Doctor Crusher leaves her position on the "Enterprise" to
become the chief medical officer of Starfleet, the brightest light
in Picard's life is taken from him. And he has hardly resigned
himself to his loss when he learns that Beverly has been declared
missing in action on a distant planet -- and presumed dead.
Kevratas is a bleak, frozen world on the far side of the Romulan
Neutral Zone where the Federation has become the plague-ravaged
natives' only real hope of survival and freedom. Starfleet has no
recourse but to send in another team to try to save the Kevrata --
and Picard is the natural choice. Critical to the success of his
mission are two colleagues who served under him when he commanded
the "Starship Stargazer" -- Pug Joseph, a man with a past to live
down, and Doctor Carter Greyhorse, who has served time for
attempted murder -- as well as a Romulan who left his people years
earlier and never expected to return. Together, they follow the
trail of Beverly Crusher to Kevratas, determined to succeed where
the doctor failed.
On the Romulan homeworld, meanwhile, the political vacuum created
by the demise of Praetor Shinzon has been filled by his staunchest
supporter, Senator Tal'aura. But there are those who oppose her,
including Commander Donatra and the warbird fleets under her
command, because of the way Tal'aura has mishandled rebellions on
the Empire's subject worlds.
And one rebellion in particular; the movement for
self-determination on frigid Kevratas.
So begins a desperate struggle -- not only for the freedom of the
long-oppressed Kevrata but also for the soul of the Romulan Empire.
Before it's over, destinies will be forged and shattered, the
Empire will be shaken to its ancient foundations, and Jean-Luc
Picard's life will be changed...forever.
