Aruna Accalia - a 13-year-old girl - has been in hiding, secretly working for the Rebellion - particularly Senators Mon Mothma and Bail Organa who then transmit her information to Phoenix Squadron. Meanwhile, Thrawn needs to win Tarkin's favor in order to continue with his own secret project. He knows Krennic has been swaying Tarkin over with his own secret project, the name and design unknown to Thrawn. Thrawn has been very successful in most everything he does; of course, he does need help from a certain Fulcrum agent: Agent Kallus. Thrawn has his suspicions of Kallus, and if he's right, Kallus will soon be the cause of his own demise. But he needs Kallus to find and capture the one person who could win over Tarkin: the Grey Jedi. But what if Kallus doesn't really know where she is? Then Thrawn may discover a secret well kept and hidden - one that needs to stay that way. The Gray Jedi has an apprentice. Could the Gray Jedi, her apprentice, and Aruna have something in common aside fromt he fact they all must stay hidden? And though it is evident why the Jedi must stay hidden, why must Aruna? And how does Aruna steal the Imperials' classified top-secret information? Who is the Grey Jedi's Mysterious apprentice? All the paths are coming together... But will Rebels and Imperials indistinguishably like where they lead?
