"Behind Enemy Lines" and "Tunnel Through the Stars" recounts some of the activities of Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise E during the Dominion War. In this duo of books, Riker takes command of the Enterprise while Picard and LaForge go undercover with Ro Laren to take out a verteron collidor being built by the Dominion to generate a stable wormhole. It also features "Lower Decks" character Taurik and Sam Lavelle; who, having been prisoners of the Dominion, are sent to mine a rare element needed in the collidor and escape to Ro's ship.
These books have a great story line; and the events on Ro's ship read like a well played game of Clue (Someone on this ship is a killer!) However, Vornholt's characterizations fall flat- he writes all the characters as if they're being impersonated by a founder. I also found his obvious shipping a bit annoying.
