Publisher's Synopsis
On a diplomatic mission to the planet Andor, Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-Ebear witness to the devastation resulting from the Borg invasion. With the reproductive issues that have long plagued the Andorian people reaching crisis level, avenues of research that at first held great promise have proven largely unhelpful, and
may well indeed be worsening the problem.
Despite the Federation's seeming inability to provide assistance and growing doubt over its commitment to a staunch longtime ally, Andorian scientists now offer renewed hope for a solution. However, many segments of Andorian society are protesting this controversial new approach, and more radical sects are beginning to make their
displeasure known. In response, President Nanietta Bacco has sent the Enterprisecrew and a team of diplomats and scientists to Andor to convene a summit, in the hope of demonstrating that the Federation's pledge to helping Andor is sincere.
Ominously, the Typhon Pact is watching and their intrigues may very well drive the Andorian people down a dangerous path...
