In book three of The Twelve Shepherds Saga we discover that the mission of the Shepherds is more than just the pursuit of justice.
The corruption and unscrupulousness of those in power have resulted in a public outcry that can no longer be ignored. With the help of the press the people themselves apply pressure on those in office, and as a result the mission reaches a turning point.
The Shepherds now target the root of the problem, knowing that when crossing that line, there is no turning back.
