Synopsis

Ambassador Spock continues his mission to unify the Romulan and Vulcan peoples, but is captured by a Romulan spy. Starfleet dispatches its best ship, the U.S.S. EnterpriseTM 1701-D, and its most respected captain, Jean-Luc Picard, to secure the release of the ambassador. Ambassador McCoy, now over 140 years old, is also sent to assist in the negotiations. But the situation becomes further complicated when another of Spock's former shipmates, Montgomery "Scotty" Scott confiscates an out-of-service starship and effects his own daring rescue of his friend.

Goodreads review by Jamie on May 13, 2023

No surprises here, but a solid story following on most directly from the TNG Unification episodes featuring Spock and his clandestine efforts to reunite Vulcan and Romulan societies. Some great moments in particular with Bones, now a 150 year old curmudgeon of an admiral.......more

Goodreads review by Jersy on December 27, 2019

This is a decent Star Trek story and if there is something objectively wrong with it, I didn't catch it.
