 Gerritsen, Tess
Catherine Cordell. When we meet Jane Rizzoli, we discover that she is the only female police officer on the Boston PD team. However, that does not mean that there is a lack of female characters; Catherine Cordell, a witness to a homicide that had happened several years previously, is introduced to the reader. The doctor is soon pursued by the murderer, who has chosen her as his victim.
The Apprentice. Agent Dean is from the FBI, with a cool manner that could give others the false impression that he has no emotions. This is not true as he eventually manages to win over even the stubborn Jane Rizzoli.
Lawrence. His character is rather curious and does not appear in the books very often. When he does, it is possible to see that he works as a psychologist for the Boston PD and seems to know more about Jane's true emotions than she is actually showing.
Camile. There were numerous clues in the book, suggesting that she had been pregnant, one of which is a used sanitary towel in the bathroom. After further investigations, it is discovered that the baby was born dead and anencephalic (this means that the brain was not fully developed).They also discovered that it had been her father who had been the child's father.
Amathea. She discovers that her mother is a murderer, virtually crazy and unintelligible. After meeting her in the prison, Maura wonders if her mother's eyes were the eyes of evil, and whether she had inherited anything other than her looks from her mother.
