Synopsis

Star Trek #63. While on a routine mission, the USS Enterprise encounters a derelict Romulan space station adrift within Federation borders. Exploring the station, the crew finds no survivors but experience ghostly apparitions flitting at the edge of sight. Soon the USS Enterprise is also inexplicably without power, leaving those on the space station stranded. The situation becomes desperate when a Romulan warship arrives and the Romulan Commander accuses the Federation of treachery and murder. To save Enterprise and his crew, Captain Kirk must discover what it is that haunts the derelict space station and avoid being drawn into a deadly game that will leave no winners and no survivors.
