The Beka Cooper books are a change from the rest of Tamora Pierce's books that take place in and around Tortall. She has taken a break from mages and knights to tell the story of a Tortall Legend -Rebakah Cooper, George Cooper's six-times-great grandmother, is a Provost's Guard, known as a Provost's Dog. She is the first in her family to join the Dogs. In this first book - Terrier - she has just graduated from her training to become a Puppy to to veteran Dogs.
Beka has chosen to work in the Lower City, a place she grew up in until she was eight. A place most would be afraid to work. Luckily for her she is assigned to two the best Dogs in the district - Mattes Tunstall and Clara Goodwin.
