Characters

This cast list covers absolutely everyone who is going to show up in this story at any point, so I’m organizing it by category  — either family or occupation. I’ve gone out of my way to find pictures of these people from the time period the story is set (2003) though in some cases, it was not possible. I think I spend more time than I need to worrying about these things, ha. This page encompasses any and all characters that appear in the trilogy, even if they’re only in one or two of the books.
