Sacrifice (Star Wars: Legacy of the Force, Book 5)

"To end the bloodshed and suffering, what sacrifice would be too great? That is the question tormenting Jacen. Already he has sacrificed much, embracing the pitiless teachings of Lumiya, the Dark Lady of the Sith, who has taught him that a strong will and noble purpose can hold the evil excesses of the dark side at bay, bringing peace and order to the galaxy - but at a price." "For there is one final test that Jacen must pass before he can gain the awesome power of a true Sith Lord: He must bring about the death of someone he values dearly. What troubles Jacen isn't whether he has the strength to commit murder. He has steeled himself for that, and worse if necessary. No, the question that troubles Jacen is who the sacrifice should be." "As the strands of destiny draw ever more tightly together in a galaxy-spanning web, the shocking answer will shatter two families ... and cast a grim shadow over the future."--BOOK JACKET.
