Adrian Cross is an inspector in the Grand Hollow intelligence unit. A man with a morally ambiguous approach, pragmatic and cold at work, but with a strange inner line he never fully crosses: he does whatever it takes to catch the culprits, even if it means venturing into questionable legal territory. He doesn't believe in perfect justice. He believes in results. Age: 38
