Jackson Lamb

Also known as Джексон Лэм, Lamb, Jack

Major
First seen · Book 2 · Ch. 1

Jackson Lamb is a large, overweight man with thinning light brown hair combed back from his forehead and a perpetual layer of stubble on his cheeks. He wears a perpetually rumpled trench coat over a food-stained green jumper, often leaving his shirt unbuttoned to reveal a hairy belly, and tops the look with a black fedora. His movements are surprisingly quick despite his bulk, and his face can shift from sleepy and troll-like to sharply alert, with crooked yellow teeth visible in his smile.
