Reese Heyman

Reese is a former detective working at a bookshop. While going to work one day, he apprehends the pickpocket Jimmy and has him work at the bookshop for a day in exchange for not turning him over to the police. Reese has a guarded demeanor and is a good judge of character, often guessing what Jimmy is thinking from his facial expressions (though he admits Jimmy wears his heart on his sleeve). [Spoiler] Reese quit the police force after his partner was brutally murdered, and it took a long time and a lot of therapy for him to manage the trauma. Jimmy's break-in attempt affects him to the point of needing a week off from work. [/Spoiler]
