Book description
The Starship Trap
En route to an important diplomatic reception the U. S.S.
Enterprise suddenly is set upon by a Klingon warship. The
unprovoked assault, Kirk discovers, is in response to what the Klingon
ship's captain claims are recent Federation attacks on several Klingon
vessels which have disappeared.
Managing to secure a truce, Captain Kirk reaches the reception only
to find out it is not just Klingon ships that are disappearing, but
Federation vessels, Romulan Birds of Prey, and ships from almost every
known race are vanishing without a trace.
Now, Captain Kirk and the crew of the Starship Enterprise
must determine the fate of the missing ships before the entire known
galaxy is drawn into a deadly conflict.
