Beka's magical listening talent is the only way for the Provost's Dogs to find out the identity of this brutal new underlord, for the dead are beyond fear. In this way, Beka learns of someone in the Lower City who has overturned the power structure of the underworld and is terrorizing its citizens into submission and silence. So good, in fact, that she hears things that Mattes and Clary never could - information that is passed in murmurs when flocks of pigeons gather. Never much of a talker, Beka is a good listener. What they don't know is that Beka has something unique to offer. They're tough, they're capable, and they're none too happy about the indignity of being saddled with a puppy for the first time in years.
She's assigned to work with Mattes and Clary, famed veterans among the Provost's Dogs. But it's also where Beka was born, and she's comfortable there.īeka gets her wish. To the surprise of both the veteran "Dogs" and her fellow "puppies," Beka requests duty in the Lower City. Beka Cooper is a rookie with the law-enforcing Provost's Guard, commonly known as "the Provost's Dogs," in Corus, the capital city of Tortall.
