Eddie Humphrey: A man without hope for the future, drinking his way through each day and often teetering dangerously close to suicide. Eddie once had a promising future - he has a law degree and was elected to the City Council on the Defender ticket. However, his willingness to compromise with the other party irritated his peers and gave openings to his rivals and he was ultimately defeated after a bitter re-election campaign. Overwhelmed with shame and abandoned by his fiance, Eddie's inner demons took control. Sounds like a downer, but Eddie prefers jokes and zingers to self-pity and is usually quite personable.


Alejandro "Alex" Munoz: A police officer who became Eddie's loyal friend after a City Council investigation saved his career. The two of them frequently throw back beer and liquor at Bubba's Bar and Grill. Given the similarities in their careers, they frequently help one another with investigations. However, Munoz will find his loyalty to Eddie tested by a police force that mostly holds a grudge for Eddie's actions on the council.


Noel Michaelsen: Head of the Defender Party and the council's current Minority Leader. As election season looms, Noel begins to fear that the Advocates will go to nefarious lengths to ensure a victory at the polls. Despite being in the same party, he and Eddie clashed often as councilors and while they still don't see eye to eye on many issues, Noel has been a friend and mentor.


Katharine Lynch: Eddie's agoraphobic neighbor hasn't left her apartment in at least a decade. She has made peace with this arrangement and stays informed on the outside world with newspapers and the internet. Her photographic memory has led to many pivotal clues for Eddie's investigations and he sees her as a valuable resource.


Duncan Preston: A recent college graduate who is climbing the ladder in the local scientific community, Duncan's life was forever changed by a key vote Eddie made while he was still in high school. Now he helps the detective by providing scientific analysis and techincal expertise to Eddie's investigations. Quick with a joke and filled with genuine enthusiasm for all things science.


Harry Welles: The head of the Advocate Party and the current Chairman of the City Council. Welles's record on the council is the stuff of local legend, but he is out for blood during election season. Eddie holds Welles responsible for his electoral defeat and can barely contain his contempt. His day job is operating a pharmacy in the city.


Dr. Lana Stanwyck: Real men don't see therapists, right? Wrong. At Katherine's suggestion, Eddie goes into her office without really knowing what to expect. She is very gifted at her job, but he will make a very challenging patient.
