And Jeremy began to realize that, in a way he couldn't possibly understand, he could repair others, just as he himself had been repaired. An aging aunt, dying of cancer in the farm home where she had raised him. A dog, struck down by a car. A girl he had known in high school, suffering from cystic fibrosis."Healing," others called it.A "gift."But healing-even resurrecting-others was neither easy nor painless.Nor safe, either for himself or his friends.And it was leading inexorably toward his third-and final-death...

    • Seit über zweihundert Jahren leben die Bewohner des Planeten Chyrellka in Frieden. Die von ihnen kolonisierte Welt Vancadia sollte demnächst in die politische Unabhängigkeit entlassen werden.

Auf den Hilferuf des chyrellkanischen Premiers hin wird die Enterprise in das Krisengebiet entsandt. Regierung wie Rebellen versuchen, Captain Kirk auf ihre Seite zu ziehen. James Kirk muß jedoch bald entdecken, daß beide Parteien ein hinterhältiges Versteckspiel betreiben. Als Spock und Dr. Mc Coy sich auf den Planeten beamen, um mit dem Rebellenführer zu verhandeln, tappen sie geradewegs in eine Falle. Die Enterprise-Crew kann keinerlei Lebenszeichen der beiden Offiziere mehr ausmachen. Und das läßt nur einen Schluß zu: Spock und Pille sind tot.
