Review Summaries
"When the New Republic took Coruscant, Rogue Squadron pilot Corran Horn was captured by the Empire and sent to the infamous prison known as Lusankya. Given up for dead, Corran desperately seeks a way to escape.
On Coruscant, a deadly virus planted by the Empire terrorizes the alien population while leaving humans unscathed which builds up severe tension between the New Republic and non-human species.
All the while, being tried and wrongfully accused for Corran's assumed death, squadron mate Tycho Celchu is trying to convince his own government of his innocence while attempting to find the real traitor in Rogue Squadron. For if he fails, not only will he die, but the traitor will go free and possibly sentence others to Corran's misery, taking the New Republic down as well.
