MEET DI MORGAN YEOMAN
Detective Inspector Morgan Yeoman is a force to be reckoned with. Driven, sharp and unflinchingly pragmatic, he has no qualms about skirting the line between right and wrong if it means catching a killer. His commanding presence can silence a room or rattle a suspect, and his sharp instincts often put him a step ahead of his peers. He's fiercely protective of his team, but his stubborn nature often causes tension between them. Deep down there's a softer side to Yeoman that many don't get to see, except his beloved German Shepherd Rochester, who he adores.
