Gerda

Anders

Portrait Reinhardt

Reinhardt

Margit

Gerda

4

A quick-thinking and observant nurse who works in the small village of Tinglev. Growing up with a Danish mother and a German father has made her a frequent mediator in the local community, though some think she is too unwilling to take sides. She puts her people pleasing ways and perfectionism to good use working at the local clinic as a nurse. ​

Anders

4

A good-natured mechanic who would rather spend his days illustrating the local wildlife than tinkering with an engine. Despite a quiet disposition, there is a righteous heart beating beneath his calm exterior.

Portrait Reinhardt

Reinhardt

5

A Wehrmacht officer with a penchant for cigarettes and crime, Reinhardt was transferred to Southern Jutland, where he quickly integrated himself into the local black market. He cares little for ideology and partakes of illicit substances to quell both his nerves and his guilt.​

Margit

4

​The daughter of local manufacturing magnate Algot Vestergaard, Margit enjoys assisting with the family business, but has reservations about her father’s illicit business dealings. Often escaping into books, she worries she might never see the world outside of Tinglev.​
