No stardate given: A state of
emergency has been declared on Earth, and armed
Starfleet security officers are on the streets. But
the activities of an elite cadre of Academy cadets on
the night of the power outage arouse Sisko's suspicions. He and Odo investigate, and learn that the
sabotage was caused not by Changelings but by
"Red Squad" under orders from Admiral
Leyton, whose goal is to oust the President and take
over Earth to fortify it against the Dominion. And
Leyton is willing to do anything, even order one
Starfleet ship to destroy another, to carry out his
plans.
