Bove Sandle has been receiving visions since his mission to the planet Kryth. After that mission, Kryth was approved for colonization and a colony was established. The Kazons, an empire ruling a section of the galaxy close to Kryth, have discovered the colony and claim Kryth is within their territory. They want the colony removed. The United Earth Federation knows little about the Kazons, so they offer Bove, who captains the starship Ibex, a mission to learn more. He accepts the mission and enlists Stella Thorne, whom he has not seen since meeting her on his last mission, and is anxious to see her again. He hopes she has knowledge of the Kazons that will be helpful for the mission.The seemingly simple mission to gather information proves to be more treacherous than Bove, Stella, and the Ibex crew expect

Includes First Encounters and Three HillsBove Sandle is sent on a mission to the Delta planet of Phoenix-Gamma. As a member of the elite First Encounter Team of the Galactic Peacekeeping Force (GFP), his mission is to determine if the planet can be colonized. While on the planet he has visions of the destruction of the Kryth civilization inhabiting the planet. Ignoring the visions, he approves of the colonization of the planet. Because of his approval to colonize, he is forced through another vision to redeem himself bycommitting to provide protection to anyone threatened with harm, regardless of the severity of the threat. Due to his visions, the GPF places him on desk duty which he finds unacceptable, so he quits the First Encounter Team. No longer a member of the elite team he has trouble finding work and takes a job piloting a starship to deliver a special package. The job turns out to be more than a simple delivery and puts Bove, and the crew of the starship Ibex, in grave danger.
