Her character is described as being “smart, thoughtful, and slightly obsessive.” Madsen’s grandfather and “uncle” were guards at the legendary high-security prison years before. This leads to her initial interest in the mysterious reappearance of 302 Alcatraz prisoners, who had just as mysteriously disappeared a century before.
