DS Jenn Townsend

Jenn Townsend is warm, engaging and optimistic. She approaches her job with positivity rather than cynicism, although she has a steeliness to her that shouldn't be underestimated particularly when it comes to those she's close to. Having already spent a year working in the MIU team after moving from Manchester, she finally feels like she's earned her place and is enjoying being settled in her home in Morecambe with her blended family. That's not without its challenges though; juggling multiple murder investigations alongside the needs of her teenage kids is far from straightforward.
