The Shadow Snake Analysis
Man Vs. Man is the most prevalent type of conflict in Terrier. Beka is a ‘puppy’(junior police-Dog), and there are two cases that she got her teeth into. The first case is someone claiming to be ‘Shadow Snake’ kidnapping children from their parents and leaving a note in the child’s bed, telling the parent to leave something valuable in a certain place one week from then. If the parents don’t pay, the ‘Shadow Snake’ kills the child. Many disregarded the note, the shadow snake is a fairy tale after all, and found their child dead in their garden or on their porch. They wouldn’t go to the Dogs, because they wouldn’t do anything about a child missing in the lower city. Beka heard about it because Crookshank’s 3-year-old great grandson was taken
and killed. The other case is nine people being killed after digging for a man called Crookshank. This case was the cause the Shadow Snake went after Crookshank. He was digging for Fire Opals, which are rare and expensive stones. The Shadow Snake wanted Fire Opals from Crookshank. Beka and her Dogs(Mentors) are engaged in a battle of wits with both the Shadow Snake and Crookshank.
