This comic takes place after New Hope and the Death Star has been blown up by Luke Skywalker. On Coruscant their best spy Eneb Ray is asked to help a group of Senators escape from the prison Arrth-Eno. They have access codes and a ship willing to smuggle them off of Coruscant. He agrees to help. When he arrives the Senators tell him they have a rare opportunity to kill the Emperor as he is coming to Arrth-Eno. Ray contacts Leia and she has the six spies on Coruscant come to his aid as well as the spy on Arrth-Eno itself. But things go wrong and the Emperor had laid a trap for them and blows up Arrth-Eno killing everyone on board. Ray was last seen going after the Emperor's ship.
Cut to now where Leia has teamed up with Sana to capture Dr. Alphra. They then head out to a maxim security prison, Sunspot Prison, to place her there. The place has a sun at its back and is heavily fortified at its front. No one knows about the place either. But then a mysterious man and his droid army invade the prison and begin to kill the prisoners. Leia cannot stand for this and is determined to save them. He is equally determined to get her to kill them.
Leia and Sana will unlock Dr. Alphra's cell and make the decision to trust her enough to help them try to take back the prison. Meanwhile, Han and Luke are on a mission to get supplies for the Rebels and Han loses all the money on a sabacc game and must find a way to earn it back. This is a powerful comic that explores the dark side of humanity and how a monster can be created. While Leia is looking to save everyone Sana is looking to save only them, which is typical of both of them. Sana and Dr. Alphra have some kind of history together that didn't end well so those two are at each other's throats. The character of Eneb Ray is a good and honorable man--a hero--who believes in the cause fully. Will Leia and Sana be able to save the prisoners and make sure Dr. Alphra doesn't escape? I really liked this book that found a way to insert some humor into a very dark storyline. I give it my highest recommendation.
