In this return to the action-packed Star Trek saga by bestselling pop-culture phenom William Shatner, Captains Kirk and Picard must face a seemingly unstoppable enemy in a battle over the existence of life itself. Following the explosive events of Star Trek: Nemesis, the Romulan Star Empire is in disarray, and Ambassador Spock attempts to render aid by launching a last-ditch effort to reunify the Romulans with their distant forbears, the Vulcans. But when Spock is publicly assassinated at a Romulan peace rally, Starfleet and the Federation are unable to search for the criminals responsible without triggering an intergalactic war. And so it falls to James T. Kirk, now retired, to investigate his beloved friend's murder. Accompanied by his eight-year-old son Joseph, and the cantankerous Dr. McCoy, Kirk travels to Romulus as a civilian. Once there, Kirk encounters an alluring enemy from his past and finds that Spock's apparent murder hides an even deeper mystery, literally reaching back in time to the origin of life on Earth. Trapped on a deadly, alien world on the eve of a Romulan civil war that could plunge the galaxy into epic conflict, Kirk soon uncovers the true threat facing the Romulans. And he finds himself confronting the heartrending realization that for peace to prevail, he must sacrifice the life of his son--whose very blood holds a monumental secret.
