4!!Det. Emmett Carver
5[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/carver_emmett_4745.jpg]]
6->'''Played By:''' Creator/DavidTennant
7
8%%* DeadpanSnarker
9* BunnyEarsLawyer: The other detectives, particularly Ellie are woefully outclassed. Carver has more homicide experience than anyone on the force. What's more, he knows it; he's not afraid to throw his weight around with the Sheriff, knowing he can do far better than Gracepoint P.D.
10* DeathGlare: He shoots a particularly potent one at resident fuck-up Owen after he leaks Danny's name.
11* DefectiveDetective: Carver is a highly competent detective (and holds others to such standards) but he's clearly troubled and emotionally closed-off.
12* FishOutOfWater: He's from the big city, and dislikes having to 'soften' his approach in an appeal to small-town sentimentality.
13* GoodIsNotNice: Although a good man, he's not easy to get along with and is ill-suited to a small town where everybody seems to prefer being 'nice' to being competent.
14* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Carver is dismissive, irritable and doesn't think much of his co-workers. However, he's a good man who wants to solve Danny's murder and feels great sympathy for the family.
15* PermaStubble: He sports this look.
16* TheSpock: To Ellie's [[TheMcCoy McCoy]]. He is colder and more rational than Ellie which has a tendency to alienate the people of Gracepoint.
17** This is exhibited in his great dislike of using first names which is contrastive to Ellie's insistence on using first names.

20[[folder:Ellie]]
21!!Det. Ellie Miller
22->'''Played By:''' Creator/AnnaGunn
23
24* HappilyMarried: To her husband, Joe. They have a loving and supportive marriage.
25* TheMcCoy: To Carver's [[TheSpock Spock]]. She is more emotionally invested in the investigation due to being a personal friend with the Solano family. This leads to her judgement being often compromised.
26** This is exhibited by her preference of first names over last names in comparison to Carver who prefers the opposite.

41->'''Played By:''' Creator/NickNolte
42
43* CloudCuckooLander: Jack has a slight air of this. During his police interview, he tends to go off on tangents and talk about the environment.

55->'''Played By:''' Creator/JoshHamilton
56
57* [[spoiler:AffablyEvil: He's pretty friendly for a would-be pedophile.]]
58* [[spoiler:BigBad:The closest thing to one in the show, as it's largely his fault Danny Solano is dead and he's the main one covering it up.]]
59* HappilyMarried: To his wife, Ellie. They have a loving and supportive marriage.
60* PapaWolf: Is very protective of his son. [[spoiler: He even takes all the blame for Danny's death when Tom accidentally kills him (albeit Tom was trying to protect Danny from his father]].

69!!Owen Burke
70->'''Played By:''' Creator/KevinZegers
71
72* IntrepidReporter: He'd like to think he's this, but at best he's a well-meaning incompetent who doesn't think before he acts.
