Trick or treat — or trick and treat! The second part of my novel trilogy, Star Trek: Prey Book 2 – The Jackal’s Trick has just released from Simon & Schuster/Pocket Books as a mass-market paperback and in e-book format.
The second act of our Klingon opera ramps up the tension significantly, with the Klingon-Federation alliance in peril as never before. Lord Korgh
has seized control of the House of Kruge, executing a plot one hundred
years in the making. The Klingon cult known as the Unsung rampages
across the stars, striking from the shadows in their cloaked
Birds-of-Prey. And the mysterious figure known as Buxtus Cross launches a
scheme that will transform the Klingon Empire forever.
Into danger flies Admiral William T. Riker and the USS Titan,
charged with protecting the peace forged nearly a century before during
the Khitomer Accords. Aided by Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the USS Enterprise,
Riker and his officers scour the stars, seeking to find the Unsung and
uncover the truth behind the conspiracy before time runs out.
Yet
even as Commander Worf departs on a deeply personal mission of honor,
hidden sinister forces seek to turn the crisis to their advantage. And
the conspirators plans threaten to spiral out of control, jeopardizing
the very empire they aspire to rule.
