That's the problem facing newly promoted Captain Sisko when he pilots the Defiant on a mission to protect federation Outposts. It turns out the Federation ambassador aboard-and the S.O.S. that prompted the Defiant's sortie-are part of a Dominion plot to incite war in the Alpha Quadrant. Now Sisko must identify an enemy who could be the person next to him-or even the ladder he's climbing.
