Zero Sum Game is a novel by David Mack, the first in the Star Trek: Typhon Pact series, released in October 2010. The novel features the crew of the USS Aventine at Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek works and explores the culture and society of the Breen.

Summary

From the book jacket
A spy for the Typhon Pact – a new political rival of the Federation – steals the plans for Starfleet's newest technological advance: the slipstream drive. To stop the Typhon Pact from unlocking the drive's secrets, Starfleet Intelligence recruits a pair of genetically enhanced agents: Dr. Julian Bashir, of station Deep Space 9, and Sarina Douglas, a woman whose talents Bashir helped bring to fruition, and whom Bashir thinks of as his long-lost true love.
Bashir and Douglas are sent to infiltrate the mysterious species known as the Breen, find the hidden slipstream project, and destroy it. Meanwhile, light-years away, Captain Ezri Dax and her crew on the USS Aventine play a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a Typhon Pact fleet that stands between them and the safe retrieval of Bashir and Douglas from hostile territory.
