Someone is killing the gods. But Benjamin Sisko's Prophets-guided dealings of the higher cosmos has led him to forget about the very real casualties on lower ground. The enemy is a MAN, not a god. And Worf of House Martok has put together his own crew aboard the U.S.S. Defiant in hopes of defeating the dangerous messiah behind this genocidal cult.
Nymira Vondect is back from the dead, having survived the cataclysmic explosion on Starbase 99 with help from the universe’s seediest rogue, Berlinghoff Rasmussen. Now she and Berlinghoff are running elaborate scams together to take advantage of unsuspecting Berbians and make a quick buck. But something niggles at Nymira… Should she tell her old crew she’s still alive or keep living the life she thinks she deserves? Meanwhile, Captain B’Elanna Torres, Ro, and O’Brien combine forces with Section 31’s Captain Frears to take out the minefield in the Gamma Quadrant once and for all.
