Product Description:
On the cusp of their epic battle with Shinzon, many of Captain Jean-Luc Picard's long time crew were heading for new assignments and new challenges. Among the changes were William Riker's promotion to captain and his new command, Riker's marriage to Counselor Deanna Troi, and Dr. Beverly Crusher's new career at Starfleet Medical. But the story of what set them on a path away from the Starship Enterprise™ has never been told.
UNTIL NOW.
At the height of the Dominion War and unknown to all save those in the highest levels of command, the Federation secretly armed the neutral planet Tezwa with devastating weapons -- part of a contingency plan against the Dominion if the front lines collapsed. But Tezwa also lies near the border of the Klingon Empire...making the Federation's covert strategy in direct violation of their fragile peace treaties,and creating the potential threat of scandal and all-out war.
Now Tezwa's power-hungry prime minister is all too eager to flex his newfound military muscle, menacing a nearby Klingon border world. Sent on an urgent diplomatic mission, Captain Picard and the Enterprise crew are caught in the crossfire as the crisis quickly escalates. With time running out and billions of lives at stake, only one man can avert the looming disaster -- Ambassador Worf, who must choose between his oath to the Federation and his loyalty to Martok, Chancellor of the Klingon Empire....

A Time to Kill is most definitely head and shoulders above the previous six "A Time To" novels. The book is dense, but also moves at a lightening quick pace.
In many ways, A Time to Kill is more how I have always envisioned Trek: decisions made at the very top and bottom of the chain of command have repercussions upon each other and create a more epic feelings. The leaders of other galactic empires have been important characters in Trek. Why hasn't the Federation president? Here we finally ... Read More

This book is one of the better Star Trek books I have read and would recommend it. The book starts in Commander Rikers quarters as he is thinking over the events that have shamed the Enterprise and its captain. When Picard is given an assignment to reesablish honor, obstacles form.

David Mack's entry into the A Time to... series of books opens up a lot of political intrigue that could shake the Federation to its core. A Time to Kill is another outstanding entry into this series. Marred only by a mildly "everything works out for the best" atmosphere that doesn't quite fit the difficulty of the Enterprise's mission, Mack still gives us a stellar book. The style fits the situation perfectly, making the reader read "just one more chapter" until the end of the book is reached.
