John is a top detective in the Albany police force. Two years ago, his life was changed forever by Ellie Belmont, abuse victim of Tom Belmont, the spoiled rich son of an oil tycoon. Tom killed himself in jail, but by then, Ellie was already in love with the doctor who helped her escape him: James Kane. Now, John's tough, businesslike demeanor has cracked. He doesn’t believe he will ever love again, but he is no longer happy with just his work. You can be anything relating to fighting crime, such as a forensic technician, a fellow detective or officer, crime scene photographer, a medical examiner, or with the DA's office. You have been newly transferred to Albany.
