J. Hasham (Martin Sacks), their relationship transitions from initial friction to a strong friendship. Amy’s history involves losing her parents in a car crash at age eight, enduring abuse from her uncle, and being expelled by her aunt at sixteen following pregnancy and abortion.

Matthew "Matt" Graham, played by Matthew Holmes, made his debut on 21 September 2005. A former Army peacekeeper stationed in East Timor, Matt’s military background instilled a strict, black-and-white perspective on law enforcement and difficulties controlling his temper. His inflexible style initially caused distrust among colleagues, including Detective Amy Fox (Rachel Gordon), even after he was cleared of murder allegations. A near-death experience during a drug raid exposed his vulnerability, leading Amy to see his deeper qualities. Matt remained a dedicated member of the Mount Thomas team until the conclusion of the series.

Married to Penny and father to Freya, Mark departed the police force after causing a fatal accident involving a drug-impaired adolescent, which provoked public outrage in Widjeree.
Evan Jones
Evan "Jonesy" Jones, portrayed by Ditch Davey, made his first appearance on 18 July 2001. Entering the police force in his late twenties with the motive to seek justice for the death of his biological father, Sam Bridges, Jonesy was soon exonerated from suspicion in a case involving his father's former business associate. Hailing from a family deeply rooted in law enforcement—including his half-brother Senior Detective Dylan Jones and adoptive father Commander Reg Jones—he was recognized for his defiant and impulsive demeanor, often described as having a 'cowboy' style in policing.
Jonesy's unconventional tactics frequently created friction with higher-ranking officers such as Senior Sergeant Tom Croydon and Sergeant Ben Stewart. His fierce interrogation techniques earned him the nickname "Mad Dog Jones." Progressing through the ranks, he advanced to Senior Constable and subsequently trained to become a Detective Senior Constable, forming a partnership with Detective Senior Constable Amy Fox.
His personal life was marked by complexity, including a passionate yet troubled relationship with Sergeant Tess Gallagher, which ended when Tess departed town due to complications related to her pregnancy. Later, Jonesy became engaged to Senior Constable Susie Raynor, but their engagement was called off following disclosures about her brief involvements with other officers. By the conclusion of the series, Jonesy and Susie had partially mended their friendship.

Married to Mount Thomas Police constable Wayne Patterson, she moved from an urban environment and initially resided in police accommodation. Known for her kindness and steadfastness, Roz struggled with adjusting to rural living and faced unpaid duties such as cleaning the station and holding cells due to Wayne’s role as watch-house keeper.
In an effort to pursue entrepreneurship, Roz launched a mobile beauty service after an unsuccessful attempt at running a home-based business; however, repeated traffic infringements resulted in her losing her license, forcing the closure of her venture. This situation caused tension with officer Nick Schultz, who enforced traffic laws rigorously due to personal loss.
Later employed as an administrative assistant at Mount Thomas police station, Roz’s involvement with police affairs strained her marriage and increased her anxiety over Wayne’s safety. Her growing compassion for vulnerable individuals she encountered led her to unlawfully access and steal police information, which ultimately resulted in her termination.
The accumulated pressure peaked when Roz, alarmed after hearing gunfire during a burglary call while speaking over the phone with Wayne, decided to leave Mount Thomas and return to the city, ending their marriage.
