Excerpt

“What have we got?” Kira asked.

“Ensign ch’Thane found him at Quark’s,” Ro said. “He’s making his statement now.”

As she spoke, they started through the door that led to the holding cells, Ro leading the way. “The soldier was unarmed and offered no resistance; he was carrying a pack of ketracel-white cartridges, but nothing else. He asked to speak to you, claiming that he’s here on a peace mission—”

Kira couldn’t help a sneer as they turned into the holding-cell area. A peaceful Jem’Hadar. Right. At leas she knew now why she’d felt watched, but that small relief was heavily overshadowed by thoughts of what he could have been doing all this time; he had to have been hiding on the station since the attack.

“—and that Odo sent him.”

They stopped in front of the only occupied cell, Ro nodding at the guard, excusing her with a few words of direction—but Kira barely heard them. She could only stare dumbly at the soldier, overwhelmed with feelings of loos, of anger and disbelief—and a tiny seed of hope.

Odo . . .
