Summary:
Ten years after she vanished during an Imperial raid on a Twi'lek colony, Cham Syndulla sees his daughter Hera for the first time in a hologram -- now wearing the uniform of an Imperial agent and apparently working closely with a human Inquisitor. All Cham wants to do is to bring his long-missing child home to what remains of her family, but he soon finds that Hera Syndulla is only interested in two things: her duty to the Empire and her loyalty to her crew, a mismatched collection of outcasts brought together by Hera and her pet Inquisitor.
With Cham and the Rebel agent known as Fulcrum in pursuit, a new mission takes Hera and the crew of the Ghost to the planet Lothal, where a chance meeting with a Force-sensitive teenager awakens something long buried in the Inquisitor once known as Kanan Jarrus...and has dire consequences for Hera, their crew, the Empire, and the fledgling Rebel Alliance.

The Ghost flashed out of hyperspace directly in front of three star destroyers.
Ezra, perched in the co-pilot’s chair beside Hera, caught his breath, his hands clenching on the armrests. He had seen star destroyers during the battle with the rebel fleet, but that had been from a distance – well, up until the moment when Kanan had nearly rammed one, anyway. Those star destroyers had ostensibly been on their side; these ones…weren’t.
“Sending transponder codes,” Hera said, her voice crisp. “Hopefully Naboo hasn’t deactivated them yet.”
“What do we do if they have?” Zeb asked over the ship’s comm system; he was up in the turret gun.
“That’s why you and Sabine are at the guns,” Hera said.
“Uh, your ship’s nice and all, but I’m pretty sure you can’t outshoot a star destroyer,” Ezra had to point out. Maybe he should have taken the offer to be dropped off in the nearest inhabited system after all, since there was a good chance today would be his last day drawing breath.
“No, but I can definitely outfly one,” Hera said. Something pinged on the console in front of her and she let out her breath. “But I won’t have to. We’ve got clearance. Everyone, stay sharp.”
