Luke Skywalker a Lando Calrissian se vrací v tomto zásadním románu odehrávajícím se mezi epizodami Návrat Jediů a Síla se probouzí. Impérium je mrtvé. Téměř dvě desetiletí po bitvě o Endor uprchly pozůstatky Palpatinovy flotily do nejvzdálenějších končin galaxie. Jenže mnohým hrdinům Nové republiky se nebezpečí či ztráty nevyhýbají ani v nové éře, kdy vládne mír. Mistra Jedi Luka Skywalkera pronásledují vize temné strany naznačující, že v hlubinách vesmíru, na mrtvém světě zvaném Exegol, roste jakési tajemné zlo. Narušení Síly je nepopiratelné. . . a Lukovy nejhorší obavy se potvrdí, když ho vyhledá starý přítel Lando Calrissian. Landova dcera byla unesena a on od té doby pátrá mezi hvězdami po nějaké stopě, která by ho k ní dovedla. Ale každá nová zpráva vede jen do slepých uliček a mizejících nadějí – dokud Lando nenarazí na sithského zabijáka Ochiho z Bestoonu. Ochi se na vrakovištním měsíci setkal s vyslancem tajemného sithského kultu z Exegolu, který mu odkázal posvátnou čepel s příslibem, že díky ní získá odpovědi na otázky, jež ho pronásledují od pádu Impéria. Výměnou za to má Ochi splnit poslední úkol: dopravit na Exegol Rey, která je vnučkou samotného Dartha Sidiouse a zároveň klíčem ke slavnému znovuzrození Sithů. Zatímco Ochi pronásleduje Rey a její rodiče až na okraj galaxie, Luke a Lando se vrhají do stínu Sithu a pomáhají mladé rodině, které jde o život.

Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian return in this essential novel set between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. Nearly two decades after the Battle of Endor, the remnants of Palpatine's forces have retreated to the far reaches of the galaxy. However, danger and loss persist for the heroes of the New Republic, even in this new era of peace. Jedi Master Luke Skywalker is troubled by visions of the dark side, sensing a growing threat on a dead world called Exegol. His fears are confirmed when Lando approaches him with news of a new Sith menace. After losing his daughter, Lando has scoured the stars for any trace of her, but every lead has ended in disappointment—until he encounters Ochi of Bestoon, a Sith assassin tasked with kidnapping a young girl. Ochi’s true intentions remain unclear to Luke and Lando. On a junkyard moon, a mysterious envoy of the Sith Eternal has given Ochi a sacred blade, promising answers to his haunting questions in exchange for completing a final mission: to return to Exegol with the granddaughter of Darth Sidious, Rey. As Ochi pursues Rey and her parents across the galaxy, Luke and Lando race to uncover the mystery of the Sith's lingering shadow and assist a young family fleeing for their lives.
