Book: TNG: Breaking the Peace

In the wake of the Borg incursion into Fedration territory, planets are left devestated, familes torn apart, and billions of beings displaced. The USS Enterprise has been tasked with patrolling the near Earth vicinity, doing whatever is needed to find the lost and alleviate suffering. Doctor Crusher has been asked to go to the ocean world of Pacifica, which escaped Borg attack but has taken in a large number of refugees. This book was fastpaced despite the lack of "action"- perhaps my timely reading of it made the book more poignant. We learn things about the families and loved ones of minor characters that we hadn't known before.
