Former Jedi Knight Barriss Offee manages to escape from Prison after almost a year, only to find a very different political landscape for the Galaxy. It seems that she escaped just in time, as Order 66 has very recently been executed by the newly formed Empire. Barriss finds herself on the run from Imperial forces and joins up with an unlikely band of rebels on a far-off world, hoping to stem Imperial influence in a system and overthrow a tyrannical regime.
