Dr Elsie Winters

A bio-archaeologist. First appears in The Lion and the Unicorn. Reprised in The Adventure of the Faithful Sergeant.

Character Background
Winters is a bio-archaeologist for the university, skilled in the analysis of all sorts of organic matter found in digs, but specialising in the study of human remains, and especially skeletons.

She is the daughter of the ex-MI5 man Samuel Winters, and probably knows more than anyone else about his life and adventures.

Outside of academia she is involved in the Black Ram Theatre Company, a small but well-regarded amateur group. They have occasionally played at Jeremy West’s Jack-in-the-Box Theatre, and thanks to this she was acquainted with West before he was persuaded to help the expedition (The Lion and the Unicorn.)

She is also a long-time friend of Philip Spencer and Katie Reid.

She is a fiendish billiards player.

(I think there was some eloping? Also her father is dead. Sorry about that.)
