A thrilling Star Trek: The Next Generation adventure starring Worf as he works to maintain peace amidst the Klingon Empire, the Federation of Planets, and a rebel planet.

Two hundred years ago: The expanding Klingon Empire discovers a frozen world rich in deposits of the mineral topaline. They named the planet taD—Klingon for “frozen”—and called the people jeghpu’wI’—conquered.

Four years ago: The Klingon Empire invaded Cardassia, breaching the Khitomer Accords and causing a break with the Federation. On taD, depleted Klingon forces were overthrown in a small coup d’état, and the victorious rebels took advantage of the disruption to appeal for recognition from the Federation.

Today: The Klingons have returned to taD and reestablished their control. But the stubborn rebels insist on Federation recognition. A solution to the diplomatic impasse must be found, a task that falls to the Federation’s new ambassador to the Klingon Empire, Worf. Now, for the sake of the Federation and the Empire, a Klingon warrior must weave a fragile peace out of a situation ripe for war.
