When a virus breaks out that targets mixed species people on a racist Federation planet, the Enterprise is sent to help find a cure while quarantining the system.  When the virus spreads to the Enterprise and takes down Troi, Dr. Crusher doubles her efforts to get to the bottom of it.

John Gregory Betancourt brings us back to the Star Trek universe with Infection, the first chapter of the Double Helix saga.  It certainly wasn’t the best TNG entry I’ve ever read, with an ending that was very rushed.  The other entries look to be spread across the different corners of the Star Trek universe, which is outside of my usual comfort zone, so we’ll see if picking up this series was worth it.
