＂When an offer comes in from the stars, Jean-Luc Picard is once more compelled away from his chateau to confront the shadows of his past. Before his days on the Enterprise, a young Picard and his crew aboard the U.S.S. Stargazer saved a thriving planet from resource-hungry Romulans--or so he thought. Now landing on a seemingly unrecognizable planet, he and his crew work to save the system--and their ship--from disaster. For Seven of Nine, agreeing to help Picard means putting her own future at risk--but is it even the future she wants?＂--Provided by publisher.
