This is told through journal entries, which is a very fun way Pierce gets to bring Beka's character to life. The atmosphere is built up so well as TP really gets to use a lengthy novel to her advantage. The story is a twist on law enforcement and while many aspects are quite problematic, I have hope that Pierce will use this to show how far Tortall has come and point out these issues along the way. History is messy and it's what we learn from it that matters.
