Angie Richardson

Angie Richardson enters the story in Antron McCray's adult life, years after the trial has already reshaped him. She is steady where he is guarded, patient with a man who has learned not to trust ease. Quiet and observant, she watches him for signs of what he still carries, wanting only to be let in.

Kylie Bunbury plays her with restraint rather than sentiment, giving Angie an attentiveness that never tips into rescue-fantasy. The writing uses her as a measure of how much damage has been done to Antron, and Bunbury lets her tenderness read as vigilance — love as a kind of careful, ongoing witness.
