Summary

Sleek, swift and deadly, the famed X-Wing fighters have earned their reputation as the Rebel Alliance's ultimate strike force the hard way--first in battle, the last line of defense.nbsp;nbsp;Now they must make a deal with the devil herself--an enemy whose ultimate goal is their total annihilation.

It's the kind of mission only Wedge Antilles and the Rogue Squadron would dare to undertake.nbsp;nbsp;Against impossible odds they will stage a daring raid into an enemy stronghold--only to be rescued from certain destruction by an unexpected ally.

Ysanne Isard, the ruthless Imperial commander, has appeared on the scene seemingly from out of nowhere.nbsp;nbsp;Now she proposes a most unusual alliance, offering to help Wedge rescue his captured comrades from Imperial Warlord Admiral Krennel's sadistic prison camp.

But her offer is not without a price.nbsp;nbsp;Wedge must lead Rogue Squadron in Isard's deadly struggle against an enemy made in her own image.nbsp;nbsp;It's an offer Wedge would love to refuse, for Isard is certain to betray them.nbsp;nbsp;But how can they leave their comrades at Krennel's mercy?nbsp;nbsp;The answer is: they can't--even if it means being caught between Krennel's ruthlessness and Isard's treachery.
