A WAR OF LIES

Three years after the disastrous final Borg Invasion, a bitter cold war against the Typhon Pact has pushed Starfleet's resources to the breaking point. Now the rise of a dangerous new technology threatens to destroy the Federation from within.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the Enterprise crew answer a distress call, only to become targets in a deadly game of deception. To protect a vital diplomatic mission, they must find a way to identify the spies hiding in their midst, before it's too late.

But Worf soon realizes the crew's every move has been predicted: Someone is using them as pawns. And the closer they get to exposing their enemy, the deeper they spiral into its trap....

4 stars

Of course I could never see the Android attack on mars in Short Treks and the opening of Picard, but the idea of all the Soong-type bodies working to a singular hive-mind dread purpose is just as chilling. it was also fascinating to see more of the galactic politics here, and with a nod to one of the best TNG episodes ever (Cause and Effect, anyone?) This was a fantastic follow-up.
