He has many personal secrets, including several marriages, a nephew with Down Syndrome, and a love for country music and his Holden Kingswood classic car. Neill Rea as Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Shepherd: a detective who decided to settle down in Brokenwood for a more peaceful life.A map on the police station wall covers much of Whangarei District, from southern Bream Bay north to Matapouri, and another map shown in "Catch of the Day" locates Brokenwood close to the settlement of Whangarei Heads, at the northern end of Bream Bay. This would put Brokenwood considerably farther north than either Warkworth or Helensville. In the same episode, it is mentioned that it takes two and a half hours by road to get from Brokenwood to Auckland. In "Sour Grapes", Shepherd and Sims are seen travelling into Auckland across the Auckland Harbour Bridge, which would confirm that Brokenwood is also located to the north of the city. The real-life town of Warkworth doubles as Brokenwood, and the Brokenwood Police Station is a 1911 building that was the Helensville Post Office. Though the exact location of Brokenwood is not stated, it was largely written and filmed in small towns immediately to the north of Auckland. It is in a farming area, with crops ranging from wheat to local wine, and the surrounding area is home to many people who have escaped city life (from retirees to alternative lifestylers). The fictional town of Brokenwood has a population of about 5000 and is located some 20 kilometres (12 miles) from the coast. As the series progresses, the working relationship between the two moves from rocky to functional as they begin to appreciate each other's talents. Brokenwood is a seemingly quiet country town where Shepherd, who has an unconventional approach to police work, is assisted by local Detective Kristin Sims, who is precise and efficient at her job, to solve murders. After the investigation, Shepherd reassesses his life and decides to stay on indefinitely, even though it means a demotion to Detective Senior Sergeant. With a possible murder investigation underway that might link the two, Shepherd takes charge.
