Why This Must Be Read: Circa Season 9, Earth's population has been decimated by the Ori plague, and those that remain alive are at the proselytizing mercies of the Priors.  Amidst the destruction, Daniel, along with Mitchell and Vala, journies to Washington D.C. in search of Jack.  This long, plotty story offers action and drama aplenty in this "what if" novel, while believably and touchingly exploring the dynamics between three members of the new SG-1 and those of the old, time-proven relationship between Daniel and Jack.  Along the way, the author gives us the Daniel we know and love - one shaped by intelligence, love, courage, loyalty, and ineffable humanity.

Author's Summary:  "In a world much changed by the Ori, Daniel searches for Jack."
