Life has always been tough for Eliza Anderson. With a nightmare mother and even worse stepfather, she has practically had to raise her little sister by herself. If trouble at home weren’t enough, she is about to start her final year of school, which means fitting work shifts around studying, as well as having to face her cheating ex. Never one to let life drag her down, Eliza is determined to keep her head down and focus on the future. That makes her the only one in Burnt Oak who isn’t interested in Jack, the super-hot new student. But Jack isn’t so easy to ignore—especially when he keeps appearing at the first sign of trouble. When a life-changing incident forces Jack to reveal the truth he has been hiding, Eliza's life is turned upside down, and she is thrown into a world she had no idea existed. Nothing can prepare her for what comes next. When secrets are unearthed and lies begin to unravel, Eliza begins to question everything she thought she knew.

Picard and the USS EnterpriseTM were able to score a stunning victory against the Borg. But all that has changed, and the Borg are back...

Once again, Captain Picard, Commander Riker, Lieutenant Commander Data and the rest of the crew must face their greatest foe in a startling confrontation that will take them across time and put them face-to-face with their relentless enemy, revealing the Borg Collective's deadliest secret...and its true face.
