Books
Dark Disciple
The Jedi Council meets to discuss the devastation the Clone Wars are wreaking on the galaxy. They come to the conclusion that Count Dooku, the leader of the treasonous Confederacy of Independent Systems, must die, and they devise a plan to assassinate him. The Council selects Asajj Ventress, Dooku's former disciple and personal assassin, and team her up with Vos. Even though Ventress has good cause to distrust the Jedi, the Council thinks that if given the right encouragement, her animosity for Dooku, who tried to have her killed once she had outlived her usefulness to him, may lead her to act against her former master.
