Who's walking it
Two who followed the road, and the town that was waiting at the end of it.
This list grows with the show. Every name here has a page; every page fills in as the road does.
Warm, curious, the one who insists on following the road. California money — to her it means freedom. Pulled forward by wonder, and narrating all of it.
“It started with a road. A long one, going somewhere nobody drives to on purpose.”
Sharp, dry, analytical. Old East-Coast money and the obligation she's fleeing. Wants to turn back and never quite does. Usually right.
“We should keep driving. We're not going to keep driving, are we.”
Runs the coffee shop at the edge of town. Kind, unassuming, remembers everyone's name. Knew Reese's before she gave it.
“There you are. Cold night for it. Come warm up before you drive. On the house.”
Halloway's entire police department, such as it is — one desk, one landline, one endlessly patient smile.
“Nobody goes missing in Halloway, miss. Hardly anybody left to go missing.”
Episode 3 — The Orpheum
She came over from Ireland young and meant only to pass through Halloway — forty years ago. Now she keeps every room made up and warm.
“Sure, you'll stay the night, pet. It's no bother at all — there's tea in it for you.”
Episode 2 — Underneath
Dreamy, disarming, and entirely at home somewhere she never meant to stay. She takes to Reese immediately.
“You'll see.”
