Cast and characters
Main
- Leighton Meester as Det. Lou Hickman, a 7-year veteran of the Eden Vale P.D. who was the sole detective of her small town police force until she convinced her father, the Chief of Police, to hire some help. Due to her department's small budget, Lou leans on her sunny disposition to solve the varied crimes in town. She harbours feelings for Shane.
- Luke Cook as Det. Henry Hickman, Lou's younger brother and Big Hank's estranged son who left home after writing an editorial criticizing his father. He returns to Eden Vale after being offered a promotion to Detective by his father–a promotion he was unable to secure while working on the Seattle Police Department due to his lack of interpersonal skills and terrible bedside manner. He is still in love with his ex-girlfriend Dr. Marci Laine who he left years prior to pursue his career in Seattle.
- Devon Terrell as Det. Shane Carson, a member of the Sheriff's Department in the neighbouring town who frequently works with Lou when she works outside the Eden Vale city limits. He is separated from his wife and fancies Lou. He is able to help Lou and Henry's investigations due to his town's better budget and better technology.
- Clancy Brown as Big Hank Hickman, the Chief of Police in Eden Vale and father of Lou and Henry. He freely admits to redrawing the town borders to ensure that his town is considered low-crime, as well as routinely providing favors for his friends.
