==Publisher's summary==
Tycho Celchu has infiltrated the Imperial Forces. Now he can communicate vital strategic information that will give the Rebellion an upper hand! But when he's pressed to lead a raid on his old Rogue Squadron teammates, he must choose between saving his comrades and serving the cause.
==Plot summary==
After having convinced an Imperial garrison on Cilpar he is an Imperial pilot, Tycho Celchu flies with Crimson Squadron in a mission against his Rebel comrades. Celchu uses low frequencies to transmit instructions to his astromech droid, who launches Celchu's X-Wing into the air. 
The Alliance and Cilpari rebels have made the ancient temple into a supply depot. Dllr Nep warns the rebels of something incoming, but it is simply Celchu's X-Wing, which the rebels take as a sign to leave. As Celchu's X-Wing engages the TIEs, Wedge Antilles, Elscol Loro and Groznik fend off TIEs. Celchu's X-Wing takes down multiple TIEs, including Wing Commander Grode, eventually taking down Celchu's own TIE just as Celchu ejects. 
Celchu's X-Wing lands in the Cilpari forest and Winter emerges from it. Reuniting with Wes Janson, Winter explains that she was inside the X-Wing when it took off. At Rogue Squadron's base, Antilles tells Elscol that he received a message from "Targeter" with her location and the rebels agree to send Vance Rego to meet with "Targeter". 
Celchu navigates the Cilpari forest at night to come upon the Imperial supply base at the ancient temple. Rego arrives and dispels the ronks with the oratay disc, leaving in a speeder before Celchu can catch up. Celchu reflects on Winter, who reminds him of his fiancée Mia, who died on Alderaan while Celchu served in the Imperial Navy. 
Rego finds the cave with Winter and Janson inside, and Winter presents herself as Princess Leia. Believing her ruse, Rego confronts her with a group of stormtroopers, asking Winter to hand him her blaster.
