 Main characters ( edit )

 Det . Supt . Stella Gibson ( edit )

 DSI Stella Gibson ( Gillian Anderson ) , a senior Metropolitan Police Superintendent attached to Britain 's major case review team . Gibson has been seconded to the PSNI on a 28 - day review of a murder investigation that quickly escalates into the hunt for a serial killer and she 's made the Senior Investigating Officer ( and Silver Commander ) of Operation Musicman . Gibson is a very capable detective and a woman who 's highly comfortable with her own sexuality ; this plays a pivotal role in her story arc with other characters , primarily James Olson and Jim Burns . Whilst working in Belfast , she becomes embroiled in the politics of policing and uncovers corruption within the force . In the second series , with her investigation stalled , Gibson is forced to get results under the threat of a new 28 - day review into Operation Musicman . As Stella 's personal past comes back to haunt her , her professional present becomes further tangled in it . Stella has what Paul describes as `` daddy - issues '' , due to her father 's untimely death . During series three , Gibson is placed under investigation by the Police Ombudsman following the shooting of Spector . Burns allows her to retain her job , which leads her to fall victim to a vicious assault during her final showdown with the killer .

 Peter Paul Spector ( edit )

 Peter Paul Spector ( Jamie Dornan ) , the father of two young children . During the day , Paul is a bereavement counsellor , though at night he is , as dubbed by the press , the `` Belfast Strangler '' . As Paul hunts his prey , he begins to develop an obsession with , and an affinity for , Stella . He is married to Sally Ann , a neo-natal nurse , and has a strong friendship with Katie Benedetto . Spector claims that he had an affair with Katie , a fifteen - year - old school girl , in order to quell the suspicions of his wife . Sally Ann later becomes pregnant , and the first series ends with Paul fleeing Ireland for Scotland as the net closes in . In series 2 , returning to Ireland , Spector 's lust to kill is now stronger than ever . As he gets closer to Stella , he finds an unusual source of help in Katie . After an encounter with James Tyler , Spector is arrested , and , co-operating with officers , is gunned down by Tyler at a crime scene . After surviving his injuries , Spector claims to have lost six years of memory . After undergoing psychological evaluation , he attacks both Gibson and his psychiatrist , before committing suicide .

 Asst . Ch . Constable Jim Burns ( edit )

 ACC Jim Burns ( John Lynch ) , the Assistant Chief Constable of the PSNI in charge of operations , and the Gold Commander of Musicman . Burns had an affair with Stella several years previously , and , despite being married , still appears to be infatuated with her . He 's a skilled officer and knows how to balance politics and police - work . He is initially hesitant about linking the murders , but later provides the investigation with all the resources it requires . He is , at first , believed to be linked to the PSNI corruption scandal , though this is later disproved . During series 2 , his lust for Stella becomes more apparent when he attempts to force himself on her whilst drunk . This drinking continues into series three , and he resigns his commission during the series finale .

 Katie Benedetto ( edit )

 Katerina `` Katie '' Benedetto ( Aisling Franciosi ) , a 15 - year - old schoolgirl . She babysits the Spectors ' children and - over the course of doing so - develops an affinity for Paul Spector .

Paul ties her up in a hotel room , for example , whilst Katie breaks into a house wearing a shirt with Spector 's face on . Benedetto is placed under police surveillance and later arrested whilst trying to dispose of evidence that implicates Paul in the murders . In series three , she attacks a girl with acid , and is detained for her crimes . During this time , she reveals to Stella that her father 's death had a severe emotional impact on her , and she has been self - harming .

 Sally Ann Spector ( edit )

 Sally Ann Spector ( Bronagh Waugh ) , the wife of Paul Spector and a neonatal nurse . She has a deep devotion to Paul , but is wary of his character as she has never met his family . Sally Ann is the mother of his two children and is unaware of his dark side .

After leaving Paul for a short time , believing he slept with Katie , the two reconcile and she flees Ireland with him . In series 2 , they return .

She speaks openly of her homosexuality to bisexual Gibson , and as a result the two develop both a professional and a personal bond .

 Liz Tyler ( edit )

 Liz Tyler ( Séainín Brennan ) , a grieving mother who was counselled by Spector following the death of her young son .

 Morgan Monroe ( edit )

 Morgan Monroe ( Ian McElhinney ) , the Chairman of the PSNI oversight executive board . Monroe wields great control over the police force and , in particular , Jim Burns .

 Wallace ( edit )

 Wallace ( Ruth Bradley ) , Spector 's defense attorney .

After failing to make any progress in his review , he is subjected to a 28 - day review and subsequently becomes Gibson 's deputy SIO ( and Bronze Commander ) during Musicman .

Shortly after the first series , he is called to trial and as such steps down as Gibson 's number two .

 Kiera Sheridan ( edit )

 Kiera Sheridan ( Aisling Bea ) , an Intensive Care Nurse employed by Belfast General Hospital . During series three , she is responsible for the treatment of Spector .

Kay decides to stay at her house , unbeknownst to her that the culprit , Spector , would return . She is later found murdered .

 Joe O'Donnell ( edit )

 Dr. Joe O'Donnell ( Richard Coyle ) , an emergency medical physician who is responsible for the immediate treatment and oversight of Spector . Following Spector 's discharge , O'Donnell shares a tender moment with Gibson , in which he asks her numerous questions in order to assess her for concussion .

 Peter Jensen ( edit )

 Father Peter Jensen ( Seán McGinley ) , was a priest until he was convicted of molesting numerous young choir boys . Regretful , Jensen attempts to make amends with God , but to little avail . During the investigation , Burns and Gibson notice Paul Spector was a member of his congregation , and Burns goes to interview him in order to gather background information on the killer . In series two , Jensen claims that he did not molest Paul , with Paul later clarifying that this was only because he did n't wash himself , with the goal of repulsing Peter . In series three , however , it is revealed that this is a lie , and that Paul was Jensen 's `` favourite , '' subjected to daily abuse for a year .

 Det . Ch . Insp . Joan Kinkead ( edit )

 Joan Kinkead ( Genevieve O'Reilly ) , a Detective Chief Inspector , and the senior investigating officer assigned to examine Spector 's shooting . She interviews Gibson under caution , though she later clears her of all wrongdoing .

 Plot ( edit )

 Percy Jackson has been having nightmares about Grover Underwood running from an unseen monster and taking refuge in a wedding dress shop . At school , a group of laestrygonians attack Percy and his classmates in a fiery game of dodgeball , but he is saved by his new friend Tyson . Annabeth Chase arrives and takes Percy and Tyson to Camp Half - Blood in the taxi of the Gray Sisters , who give Percy a series of mysterious numbers they call `` the location ( he seeks ) '' . Percy , Annabeth , and Tyson find the camp under attack by the Colchis bulls , which Tyson is able to defeat because he is in reality a baby cyclops , not a human . They discover that Thalia 's tree has been poisoned , severely weakening the camp 's magic boundaries . Chiron is suspected of poisoning it because his father is the titan Kronos , and has been fired .

 Percy tells Annabeth about his dreams , and she deduces that Grover has found the Golden Fleece , which can cure Thalia 's poisoned tree , and is located at the coordinates from the Gray Sisters . Tantalus ( who replaced Chiron as camp counselor ) sends Clarisse La Rue on a quest to find the Golden Fleece . Percy , Annabeth , and Tyson run away from camp to find Grover . They are aided in their escape by the god Hermes , who helps them reach a passing cruise ship , the Princess Andromeda . Once aboard , they discover that the ship is full of tourists in a dream - like state living alongside Greek monsters . They are captured by Luke Castellan and learn that he is trying to revive his master Kronos . They escape on a lifeboat and eventually find one of many hideouts that Luke , Thalia , and Annabeth built as children . They are attacked by a hydra but are saved by Clarisse , who is sailing on a confederate ironclad called the CSS Birmingham .

 En route to the Sea of Monsters ( Bermuda triangle ) , the Birmingham is destroyed by Charybdis and Scylla . Thinking Tyson and Clarisse dead , Percy and Annabeth sail in a lifeboat to a nearby island , where they narrowly escape the sorceress Circe , who turns men into guinea pigs . They steal the Queen Anne 's Revenge from Circe 's harbor and sail towards the island of Polyphemus . Along the way , they pass the island of the Sirens and Annabeth confesses her fatal flaw , hubris , to Percy . When they reach the island , they find Grover , Clarisse , Tyson , and the fleece . Tyson and Percy work together to defeat Polyphemus and return the group to the mainland . Once there , Clarisse takes a plane to Camp Half - Blood with the Fleece . The remaining questers are captured by Luke and taken to the Princess Andromeda . Percy manages to contact Camp Half - Blood through an Iris Message and tricks Luke into admitting that he poisoned Thalia 's tree , proving Chiron 's innocence in front of the entire camp . Mr. D then sends Tantalus back to the Fields of Punishment . Luke duels Percy , beats him , and is about to kill the group , but before he does , Chiron and the his centaur relatives appear and rescue them . Returning to the camp , Chiron is given his job back and the Golden Fleece heals Thalia 's tree . However , in the final pages , the Golden Fleece also revives Thalia Grace , putting another half - blood back into play for the Great Prophecy the gods fear so much .

 Critical reception ( edit )

 The Sea of Monsters received generally positive reviews with reviewers praising the storyline , the themes and the author 's style of writing . `` In a feat worthy of his heroic subjects , Riordan crafts a sequel stronger than his compelling debut , '' said a Publishers Weekly review . School Library Journal singled out the novel 's plot and main character , stating , `` Percy is an appealing kid , and the subject of a chilling prophecy may resonate with readers . '' Child magazine wrote , `` Featuring the cliff - hangers and sassy attitude kids loved in The Lightning Thief -- plus a surprising new family secret -- this outstanding sequel should win over a fresh legion of fans . '' Children 's Literature called the writing extraordinary and added , `` This book , sequel to The Lightning Thief , is an amazing mixture of mythology and young adult fiction . '' Matt Berman , of Common Sense Media , praised the book , saying `` The Percy Jackson series continues to be pure fun , with the author doing nearly everything right to produce a book that few kids will be able to resist . '' Norah Piehl of Kidsreads.com lauded the style of the book , and noted similarities with its prequel . It sold over 100,000 copies in hardcover by the time paperback copies were released in April 2007 .

 However , Kirkus Reviews was critical of the book , writing , `` it 's doubtful Percy would n't guess Tyson 's otherworldly connection immediately after the dodgeball game ... some of the humor will zip over the heads of the target audience '' although they added , `` Percy 's sardonic narration and derring - do would keep the pages turning . ''

 Biography ( edit )

 This section of a biography of a living person needs additional citations for verification . Please help by adding reliable sources . Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately , especially if potentially libelous or harmful . ( September 2009 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message )

 In 1985 , Scotto quit his job as a Buenos Aires sales representative for the pharmaceutical company Pfizer to see the world on his five - year - old 1100 cc Honda Goldwing Interstate . Scotto , who had never traveled outside of Argentina before , left with only $300 and no contacts for the many stops on his journey .

 By the end of his journey in 1995 , Scotto went through 13 64 - page passports and his motorcycle received one replacement engine , consumed 12,500 US gallons ( 47,000 L ) of gasoline , 350 US gallons ( 1,300 L ) of oil , 86 tires , 12 batteries and nine new seats .

 Scotto 's odyssey was often perilous , including journeys through Nicaragua in 1985 during its civil war and Kuwait prior to the 1991 invasion by Iraq . The most dangerous part of his trip , he would later recall , came in Africa when he was arrested as a suspected spy in Burundi , Chad and Cameroon . He was also jailed on suspicion of carrying a forged passport in Zimbabwe . In Liberia , he came into the country during a period of military upheaval and needed to hide in a diplomatic compound in Monrovia for several days until he could receive safe passage out of the country .

 Scotto was not able to arrange to bring his motorcycle into North Korea , but he was able to walk by foot the demarcation zone separating that country from South Korea . He was nearly denied access to China when border officials insisted that he pay a $70,000 entry fee . Intervention by the Motorcycle Club of Beijing helped him enter the country without any prepayment .

 Although Scotto did not publicize his journey when he first departed , news of his adventure began to spread during his travels . In late 1986 , when he was stranded in New York City , a television news report helped bring in donations that allowed him to cross the ocean . Scotto was able to personally present a letter to Pope John Paul II at the Vatican , and Libyan leader Col. Muammar al - Gaddafi provided him with $300 for the African portion of his journey . During the later part of his journey , he received corporate sponsorship from Pepsi , Agip and Metzeler .

 In 1991 , Scotto married Monica Pino in New Delhi , India . She was his companion on the final four years of his trek .

 Reviews of the longest ride ( edit )

 A lighhearted capsule review by The Daily Telegraph recommended The Longest Ride on the strength of the approximately 200 photographs . A longer review in Flak Magazine found fault with the book 's lack of introspection , and the author 's apparent lack of curiosity about the world he explores . The reviewer speculates that Scotto is too distracted by his own adventure , and by attractive women , and so the amazing series of places and events he witnesses goes to waste . Alternatively , the reviewer suggests that the limitations of the author 's `` pedestrian prose '' are the reason he seems unable to appreciate the exotic scenes and diverse people he meets .
