Augustus Dove

Assistant Commissioner Augustus Dove is, in large part, the reason that H Division has for a change, found itself the recipient of more funding and of positive press coverage. The young Assistant Commissioner is himself, a child of Whitechapel.

One of the new breed of ragged school boys come good, his is a precipitate rate of progress. And he hasn't stopped there. His reforming zeal and ambition stretches all the way to the Houses of Parliament.

In truth, Dove is a man after Reid’s heart. A man who Drake is glad to follow, seeing in him many of the hopes and passions which drove his erstwhile commander.
