Florence Cassell has risen to the rank of Detective Sergeant pretty fast for someone still so young.
But that's because Florence is incredibly good at what she does. She's dedicated, focused and has a great nose for sniffing out those with a guilty conscience. In short, she makes an excellent detective.
Having grown up in a house full of men (she has five older brothers), she learnt from a young age to be assertive, strong-minded and, above all, no pushover. And growing up in this environment explains why Florence is so good at spotting when someone is lying or hiding something. It's because she's seen it all before with her rascal brothers.
Tragedy struck when her fiancé Patrice was killed after becoming embroiled in a murder plot through his best friend. It was up to Florence and the rest of the team to catch his killer. Florence never got over the loss of Patrice and decided to take a leave of absence shortly thereafter. She left Saint Marie to live with family for a while, but now she's back. And she's tougher than ever…
