Synopsis

The novel is divided into three major sections — prologue, the main story, and the epilogue. The prologue follows the story behind the EAS Amundsen which fired the opening shots of the Earth-Minbari war by attacking the Grey Council ships which resulted in the death of Dukhat (and his later debriefing before the then Vice President, Luis Santiago, and his claim that the Minbari fired first), the Narn occupation of the Tuchanq (led by none other than G'kar), the serial killing of Narns by the Tuchanq that became known as D'arc, and President Morgan Eugene Clark's thoughts on using capital punishment against aliens who commit crimes against humans as a means of gaining political power.

The main story then follows.
