Tommy Lynley is an aristocrat as well as a policeman. Lynley was born into the English nobility. He has been an inspector at London's New Scotland Yard for some years now. The violence and mayhem that Lynley has witnessed have not left him jaded. Quite the contrary, the Inspector is a thoughtful and romantic man who cares a great deal for the people in his life and most of all, Lady Helen Clyde and his partner, Sergeant Barbara Havers. Lynley is stylish and well-bred. Educated at Oxford University, Lynley is very much at ease in the world of Cambridge University. Lynley is aware of the class distinction which exists between himself and Sergeant Havers but he does not make an issue out of it. Lynley is more apt to point out the similarities that exist between himself and Havers rather than their differences. He is rather tall, has dark eyes, and "perfectly clipped blond hair" (pg. 21.)
