Summary[]
- From the book jacket
- Thanks to the accidental triggering of alien technology, Captain Kirk has been banished to his own past. During a brutal massacre on Tarsus IV, Kodos the Executioner entered the history books as one of the most genocidal tyrants of the twenty-third century. As a boy, Kirk barely survived. Can he stand by now and let it happen again?
- Lt. Kevin Riley is the only other survivor of Tarsus IV serving aboard the USS Enterprise. His traumatic memories provide Spock's best hope of finding their time-lost captain — before Kirk alters their timeline forever!
