  The assassination of First Minister Shakaar on the eve of Bajor's entry into the Federation has plunged both the planet and space station Deep Space Nine into chaos. Investigations revealed a conspiracy threatening not only Bajor but also the Federation. At the same time the very foundation of the deep spiritual faith for which Bajor is famous has been challenged by the contents of an ancient heretical text discovered by Colonel Kira Nerys. Now, after a harrowing and historic voyage of exploration in the Gamma Quadrant, the Starship Defiant is coming home with its weary, wounded crew. But their joy is short-lived as they find themselves caught up into the midst of the crisis, and some are forced to make choices which alter their lives. Captain Elias Vaughan learns the true purpose for which he was Touched by the Prophets -- and discovers in the process the ultimate fate of Captain Benjamin Sisko. Meanwhile, somewhere on Bajor, a long-awaited child is about to be born...

  S.D. Perry's two-book sequence Avatar launched the new series of Deep Space Nine novels in 2001, capturing and expanding on the unique qualities of the television series and mixing new characters with old to acclaim from both critics and fans. Continuing the themes begun in Avatar through her next volume Rising Son, Perry here unites the threads in a stunning resolution which sees the return of Captain Benjamin Sisko. Starfleet Captain, father, husband, Emissary of the Prophets, a religious and spiritual icon to the people of the planet Bajor -- Benjamin Sisko is, or has been, all these things. Reconciled to his role as the conduit through whom the mysterious alien entities known as The Prophets worked, he succeeded in saving Bajor from destruction by the Pah-Wraiths, and appeared to be translated into a different form of existence, joining the Prophets in their non-corporeal world. Appearing in a vision to his new wife, Kasady Yates, he promised her he would return to her some day. Find out how, in a masterful, gripping tale which sees not only Sisko's return but the birth of his son and the historic entry of Bajor to the United Federation of Planets.
