 * Detective Sergeant Logan McRae: The main character in Stuart MacBride's books. A Detective Sergeant with Grampian Police based at Police Headquarters (FHQ) in Queen Street, Aberdeen. The series starts just as he returns from a years sick leave after being stabbed 23 times in the stomach by Angus Robertson, "The Mastrick Monster". He is seen by his colleagues as a very capable and useful member of the team, and for his part is fiercely loyal to those he respects.
 * WPC Jackie Watson: Known as "Ball Breaker", she is Logan’s girlfriend through most of the books. She has a reputation for having a very short temper and this has got her into trouble on more than one occasion.
 * Dr. Isobel MacAlister: Logan’s ex-girlfriend and the Chief Pathologist.
 * Colin Miller: A Glaswegian journalist working for the Press and Journal.
 * Detective Inspector David Insch: D.S Logan’s first boss. A very overweight man who does not suffer fools gladly and has a fondness for large packets of sweeties. Insch is also an aspiring director and actor and throughout the books is involved in amateur dramatics.
 * Detective Inspector Roberta Steel: Logan’s chain-smoking boss when he is sent to her team in Dying Light. An unashamed lesbian with a talent for inappropriate comments, she is charge of the "Screw-up Squad" - a team of officers who have lumped together due to their seemingly poor ability to solve even the simplest of cases.
 * Detective Constable Simon Rennie: Recently made a DC, Rennie was expected to be a bit of a screw up from the start after being assigned to DI Steel's screw-up squad. He does later prove himself to be of some use by pointing out things the team have missed and even being a capable firearms officer.
 * Samantha - A gothic forensic analyst, she begins dating Logan in Blind Eye.
 * Detective Chief Inspector Andrew Finnie: Sarcastic DCI introduced in Blind Eye.
 * Detective Sergeant/Detective Inspector Beattie: Nicknamed Beardy Beattie. An unfit DS promoted to DI ahead of DS McRae in Blind Eye. And is fired near the end of Dark Blood.
 * Detective Chief Superintendent Bain: Head of Grampian Police CID.
