Kira works with Maquis leader Ro Laren when a disease hits the people of Bajor. Captain Sisko enlists Quark to investigate an Orion connection to the disease.
Contents
Introduction
From the back cover: When a fatal disease spreads over Bajor, threatening the entire planet with extinction, Captain Sisko must accept aid from an unexpected source: Ro Laren, Starfleet officer turned Maquis renegade. Major Kira and Ro reluctantly join forces to track the alien plague to its source -- even as the disease claims new victims on Deep Space Nine itself. Dr. Bashir struggles to find a cure, but the secret of the virulent invader may hide deep in the shadows of Dax's past.
