THE DETECTIVE
Detective Chief Inspector David Webb is in his mid-forties with plentiful brown hair, a hard mouth, and bleak grey eyes. He possesses a tenacious and observant nature, with a knack for delving into intricate details. Webb’s determination shines through as he navigates his investigations, evaluating suspects and analysing clues with a touch of scepticism. He combines his pragmatic and focused approach to work with an artistic appreciation of beauty.

THE SETTING
The fictional county of Broadshire, in the southwest corner of England, exudes charm and picturesque allure. It’s populated by a smattering of idyllic, historic villages — their proximity to the Cotswolds apparent in the honey-coloured stone cottages and the increasingly hilly surrounding countryside.
