SIOBHANMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Siobhan is Christopher’s teacher at school. She understands him well and knows how to communicate effectively with him. He has known her for eight years, and he trusts her. It is Siobhan who encourages Christopher to write something that he would want to read himself, so Christopher sets about writing a murder mystery novel.

EDMale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Christopher’s father (Ed Boone) runs a heating maintenance and boiler repair business in Swindon. After his wife left him to live with Mr. Shears, Ed was left to raise Christopher by himself. He is more patient with the boy than his wife was, and does his best to understand him, but he also finds his son exasperating. Ed cannot think of how to explain to Christopher why his mother is no longer there, so he tells him she is dead, and he hides the letters she sends to Christopher from London.

JUDYFemale18-56 y.o.All ethnicities

Christopher’s mother is more hot-tempered than his father, and she found raising Christopher to be a hard task. Sometimes she would yell at him, and at times she felt she could not go on. She and her husband got into arguments about it, and they grew apart. Christopher’s mother, feeling lonely, started to spend time with her neighbor, Mr. Shears, and they began an affair, which eventually led to her leaving home to live with him in London.
