Excerpt

It was a modulated electronic burst that lasted no more than a second . . .

Captain Spock remained perfectly still, wondering if he would hear it again — and he did, a moment later. The third time he heard the sound, he was certain that he recognized it.

Phaser fire!

As quietly as possible, Spock rose. His ears told him that five assassins were creeping through the lodge, intent upon killing him and Teska. Armed with phasers, they could vaporize the bodies and leave no trace at all . . .
