Book description
Like the biological weapons they employ, a sinister conspiracy has
spread across the Delta Quadrant and across many years of Starfleet
History. Now the mysterious menace surfaces again -- to strike at the
heart of the Romulan Empire.
An artificial virus has infected the entire Romulan ruling family.
Ambassador Spock must put aside his efforts at unification to summon
his old friend, Dr. Leonard McCoy, who discovers that the only hope
for a cure lies with a long lost Romulan heir whose blood and tissues
have not been contaminated by the virus. But can the heir be found
before the collapse of a ruling dynasty throws the entire Empire into
chaos?
Diane Carey is the author of the bestselling
INVASION!:FIRST STRIKE and numerous other Star Trek novels including
episode tie-ins from The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and Voyager,
amongst them THE WAY OF THE WARRIOR, TRIALS AND TRIBBLEATIONS and WHAT
YOU LEAVE BEHIND (all DS9), both DS9 volumes of the bestselling
DOMINION WAR quartet, EQUINOX and ENDGAME (both Voyager).
