Commissioner Selwyn Patterson

Selwyn is charming, intelligent, and a natural winner. He鈥檚 one of the smoothest political operators on the island and he鈥檚 spent his working career rising effortlessly through the ranks of the Police force.

However, now that he’s reached the top of the police ladder on Saint Marie - the less work work he has to do, the better. He’s never happier than when he’s attending a charity lunch – or greasing the cogs of power to help his team solve a case – and nothing makes him prouder than the fact that he’s in charge of one of the best Police teams currently working in the Caribbean.
