The Jedi Order now controls the Galactic Alliance after overthrowing Chief of State Natasi Daala. Luke Skywalker and his son Ben track Abeloth across the galaxy, closing in on the dark side entity that seeks galactic domination. Their hunt leads them to Nam Chorios, where they corner their quarry but face an unexpected trap. Abeloth springs an ambush that transforms their mission into a fight for survival. Meanwhile, former Jedi Knight Tahiri Veila sits in prison, convicted of treason for killing Galactic Alliance officer Gilad Pellaeon. The new Jedi government may not possess enough power to save her from execution. Daala's supporters organize resistance against their fallen leader's removal, threatening the fragile new order. A Sith death squadron pursues the Skywalkers as they battle Abeloth, adding another deadly threat to their dangerous mission. The galaxy hangs in the balance as old enemies strike back and new powers clash.
