Characters

Macy Williams
Age 23  ·  Special Agent, FBI  ·  Reassigned from Boston

Loose cannon. The only reason she's still an agent is that she's very good at her job. Harvard grad. Always the smartest person in the room, and she knows it. Never takes anything seriously, even when she probably should. Carries a 1911 she found in the evidence locker because she lost her issued Glock. Wears a green jacket with an orange patch. Her Boston accent comes out when she's not paying attention.

Carmen Miramontes
Age 29  ·  Army Veteran, 3rd Infantry Division  ·  Rio Linda

Iraq veteran. Arc welder. Avid smoker. Has more guns in her house than she's supposed to. Antisocial, cynical, and deeply unsettling to most people — though she mostly just wants to be left alone. Macy made a deal with her: do one job, keep everything. She did one job. Now she keeps getting called. Drives a Mark III Supra.

Zoe Miller
Age 20  ·  FBI Field Support Intern  ·  Sacramento State

Arrived forty minutes early to hold up a sign at the airport. Diligent, cheerful, and genuinely wants to be a great agent someday. Currently does Macy's paperwork. Wears the FBI jacket Macy gave her on day one and hasn't taken it off since.

Tina Zhao
Age 48  ·  Special Agent in Charge  ·  Sacramento Field Office

Has run the Sacramento field office for years. Wants to retire with a clean record. Macy is making that difficult. Cold, focused, and professionally tolerant of Macy's methods because they work. Does not enjoy this arrangement.

Stephanie Winters
Age 24  ·  FBI Criminal Investigative Division  ·  Financial Crimes

Handles the financial side of the Volkov case — shell companies, transaction records, warehouses. Sweet, calm, and universally liked. The person who actually does the work before Macy walks in and takes the credit.

Richard "Dick" DiAngelo
Age 38  ·  Senior Special Agent  ·  Transferred from New York

Easygoing. New York accent. Offers unsolicited advice to everyone within earshot. Genuinely respected by most of the office. Calls everything in Sacramento "pretty good for Sacramento." Still looking for a good slice.

Edward Ströcher
Age 23  ·  FBI Paralegal  ·  Folsom

Didn't have enough money for law school. Absolutely hates Macy. Tired of his job. Macy calls him Stroker. He retaliates when he can. The tie is never crooked.

Michael "Mags" Magsaysay
Age 21  ·  Sacramento Police Department  ·  Partnered with Julie

Sarcastic. Thinks the job is boring. Thinks boring is probably for the best. Speaks English and Filipino — swears in Filipino when things go sideways. Eats every meal with rice. Loves Julie, but that's not something either of them says out loud.

Julie Alexiewicz
Age 22  ·  Sacramento Police Department  ·  Partnered with Mags

Cheerful, energetic, wants something more exciting than traffic stops. Speaks a little Polish. Corrects Michael constantly. Loves Mags, but see above.

Vadim Kravchenko
Age 33  ·  Illegal Arms Dealer  ·  Runs "Babushka's Treasures"

Sells illegal firearms out of an antique store front dealing in Soviet memorabilia. Keeps his operation small on purpose. Nice only to Carmen, who is his best customer. The FBI isn't watching him. He'd like to keep it that way.
