Publisher’s description

When our heroes stop off on the water planet Aquaris to meet with new Rebel allies, they find that at least one of those allies may be an Imperial spy. Han and Leia both have plans to trap the traitor by using Luke's droids as bait -- but their plans may go awry when Luke and Han wind up in the clutches of a deadly denizen of the deep!
