Introduction (blurb)Edit

When sensors indicate a possible wormhole nearby, Captain Janeway is eager to investigate -- hoping to find a shortcut back to the Federation. Instead, she discovers a solar system being systematically pillaged by the warlike Akerians.

The last thing Janeway wants is to get caught up in someone else's war, but to check out the wormhole -- and to protect the innocent inhabitants of Veruna Four -- she has no choice but to take on the Akerians.

But who knows what unexpected dangers lurk beneath the crimson glow of the murdered sun?

NotesEdit

• Even though Janeway and Paris are on the cover, their roles are relegated too B-plots in the story, while it is Commander Chakotay who receives the A-plot.
