Detective Lieutenant Elliott

Detective Lieutenant Elliott is the strait-laced, no-nonsense Token Black cop in most crime stories.

Personality
Elliott is the typical Token Black law enforcer; well-intentioned, caring, calm, strait laced, no-nonsense person who takes his job very seriously. He doesn't do much fiction reading so we know he is not focused on the case because of Harlan's reputation as a best-selling crime novelist.
