A fine Star Trek novel with one of my favorite themes, expanding our knowledge and understanding of Spock and his family. Here he must tutor his eight-year old niece Teska, who was raised on Earth. She inadvertently telepathically detects an assassin who is determined to block the negotiations for Vulcan-Romulan reunification, and she and Spock go on the run. A well-written Star Trek with a tasty look at Spock's sense of family devotion.
