BETH JOHNSON – Shailene Woodley
Actress extraordinaire at the King’s Theater and, unbeknownst to her admiring audience, a much-valued spy. Tall and beautiful with chestnut-brown hair and green eyes, Beth has risen from lowly depths as a foundling abandoned on the steps of Bow Church to become a celebrated actress and talented espionage agent.
Tall, dark, and mysterious, spymaster Alan Strange seeks out candidates from all walks of life, spotting the potential for high-quality agents in the most unlikely of places. Ruthless but fair, Strange is an inspiration for his recruits and trains them well.
