- For information on the founding document of the Federation, see: Articles of the Federation (document).
Summary
From the book jacket: Following the surprise resignation of Federation President Min Zife after the disastrous Tezwa affair, Nan Bacco of Cestus III has won a hotly contested election to become the new chief executive of over one hundred fifty planetary civilizations and their colonies. But no sooner does she take office than the Romulan Star Empire falls into chaos. With tensions already high, a Reman refugee ship is sighted approaching a Federation outpost, its intentions unknown.
As the first year of the Bacco Administration unfolds, the Federation Council is slow to work with its new president, and not always supportive of her policies or her appointments to key council positions; a successful first contact suddenly becomes a diplomatic disaster; and the sins of President Zife prove difficult to lay to rest...as one celebrated Starfleet officer's career reaches a turning point.

Appendices
- The book's cover depicts Starfleet officers folding the flag of the Federation, presumably an illustration of one of the novels minor subplots, the death and funeral of former President Jaresh-Inyo. The silhouetted image of President Bacco looking out a curtained window echoes a famous photograph of U.S. President John Kennedy (as well as a similar image used in The West Wing's opening credits).
- Outpost 22, the destination of Reman refugees in the novel, is listed on the title page as the location of one of Pocket Books offices.
