The threat of the Gateways - portals that allow for travel to other times and places - is finally destroyed, in this explosive conclusion to the Gateways series, in which Captains Kirk, Picard and Janeway, Colonel Kira Nerys, and the crews confront untold perils in the distant reaches of space.

After defeating a hostile computer program guarding an abandoned Kalandan outpost, Captain Kirk and his crew attempt to unlock the secrets of an ancient artifact that had hurled the Enterprise more than one thousand light years in an instant.

In an alternate universe in which Klingons and Cardassians rule the Alpha Quadrant as part of an uneasy alliance, Annika Hansen, an operative for the Obsidian Order, targets Kira Nerys, the ruthless and duplicitous Intendant of Bajor.

Intendant Kira, Overseer for the entire Klingon-Cardassian Alliance, must deal with Deanna Troi, the ambitious consort of Regent Worf, and B'Elanna Torres, half-human Intendant of the Sol System, as she enters into a dangerous liaison with Annika Hansen, an undercover agent of the Obsidian Order, who has orders to kill Kira.

Captain Kirk braves the perils of the Badlands to confront a Romulan Bird of Prey that has entered Federation space in pursuit of a fleeing smuggler. A generation later, Picard faces the same phantom menace when he commands his Enterprise into the Badlands on a mission vital to Federation-Cardassian relations.

In the Badlands, Voyager encountered the same threatening phenomena that had previously endangered both Kirk and Picard. Now, detoured from her mission by an urgent Cardassian distress call, Janeway finally uncovers the origin of the hidden menace! Sisko must deal with the exposed threat once and for all.
