Tales of the USS Pearl's crew.
In their younger days, Hank and Bethany discuss life, trade food, and devise a plan.
But in the end, the best laid plans can be undone in a few seconds.
A discussion on what the universe holds for one officer and how he discovers that sometimes it's best to accept what one has.
A night out Hank Harrison would never forget, though sometimes some things are best forgotten.
2384: As the Alpha and Beta Quadrants continue to recover from the Dominon War, Starfleet moves ahead with the launch of a very special ship, the USS Pearl. Based on the unique design of the Enterprise-C, the Pearl is assigned to Captain Henry "Hank" Harrison and dispatched to a colony on the outskirts of the Federation, New Haven, to investigate a suspected Maquis plot.
What Hank and his crew discover is something far more dangerous ... and destructive.
The USS Pearl returns in Book II of Star Trek Chronicles. Set a few months after the ending of Book I, the Pearl is preparing once again to launch after repairing the damage suffered at New Haven. As the crew deals with a new captain and first officer, the Federation is preparing for war against an enemy it knows nothing about.
As the Federation continues gathering support for the impending war, it sends the Pearl to Romulus to begin negotations for the former enemies of the Federation to ally with the rest of the Alpha and Beta quadrant powers.
Meanwhile, the former captain of the Pearl, Hank Harrison, continues his struggles against the mysterious enemy that has taken him. He must find someway to escape his prison, but he isn't sure who to trust anymore-he isn't sure if he trusts himself.
But amidst all this, the mysterious enemy begins making its final movements for its masterstroke and in the process destablizes one of the powers of the Alpha and Beta quadrants.
As old foes emerge, so do new allies.
The adventure continues ...
The final book in the trilogy of the Star Trek Chronicles series.
