Michael Jan Friedman
Continuing the mission he began in "Unification," Starfleet Ambassador Spock endeavors to impart the logic of the Vulcan way to a small band of Romulans eager to unite the Romulan Empire and the planet Vulcan. But unbeknownst to them, a Romulan spy has joined the ranks disguised as a Unification sympathizer. Deceived by this traitor, Spock and his students are taken hostage. Fearful that Spock's knowledge of Federation security will fall into enemy hands, Starfleet dispatches its best ship, the U.S.S. EnterpriseTM 1701-D, and most respected captain, Jean-Luc Picard, to secure the hostages' release. Spock's former shipmate from the original Starship EnterpriseTM, Ambassador McCoy -- over one hundred forty years old, but still as feisty as ever -- is brought in to consult on the negotiations. Their situation is further complicated when Captain Montgomery Scott confiscates an out-of-service starship and effects his own daring rescue of Spock. Picard must now find a way to preserve the Federation's security and prevent a war while treading a mindfield of danger and deadly Romulan politics that threaten his ship, his crew, and the Federation he serves.

"I've read (and loved) much of Michael Jan Friedman's Star Trek work, and I know he understands the characters....but there were parts of this novel which just did not work for me. Some of the characters felt off, particularly McCoy, but its also one of those situations where you have to ask yourself "Is this an instance of my just not liking what an established character is doing, or are they truly acting out of character?" I'm honestly not sure. I've been thinking about this book a lot even before I finished it and I suppose that makes it more of a success than other books I've read."
