Sam Chen
by dont_tell_anyone
Recently moved to Millbrook to escape the chaos of city life after a difficult breakup. Took the postal job for its simplicity but has an investigative journalism background that makes them unable to ignore mysteries. Drawn to the town's history and the stories hidden in everyday objects.

Eleanor Ashford
by dont_tell_anyone
At 95, she's Millbrook's unofficial historian and the town's most respected elder. During WWII, she was a 17-year-old who used her access to the library's basement and her knowledge of the town's hidden passages to coordinate safe houses for refugees. Never married, claiming she was too busy with her work, but the truth is more complicated.

Marcus Weatherby
by dont_tell_anyone
A 30-year-old who returned to Millbrook after law school to join his family's practice. Confident and well-connected, he's genuinely attracted to Sam but has no idea that his grandfather was one of the people who betrayed the resistance network. His family's law firm has been quietly burying evidence of the wartime activities for decades.
