**Eve Blanchard** (Born **Eve Sanders**) is an attorney with particular focus in fighting global human trafficking.

## Season 1

Eve finds Jessica Whitly's at her home, walks past her staff to have a lunch meeting with her. The pair discuss Eve's passion for fighting human rights trafficking,then the two women decide to work together. The next day while discussing the details over tea, Eve is introduced to Jessica's son, Malcolm Bright.

Eve was rather shocked when she found out that Jessica had canceled their lunch together as she and her entire team had been working tirelessly on a campaign were very excited to present it to her. She arrived at Jessica's home and soon realized she was both drunk and had a loaded pistol with her. She briefly explained about a serial killer colleague of her husband’s. Worried about Jessica she went to Malcolm's house that night and brought up concerns about her day drinking. She was rather surprised to find a shirtless and very injured Malcolm inside. He wasn't worried about the drinking but he did become concerned about her gun. He thanked her for coming over before they both left together.

Eve ran into Malcolm on her way to catch the train. Upon seeing her he immediately spit out his sucker and admitted he had just come from therapy. After a light bit of chit-chat she asked him to walk her to the train station. He agreed and when they arrived he asked her out to dinner. She accepted and he said he would text her the details, admitting his question was rather spontaneous.

That Friday night they both went to play pool, where they met Malcolm's colleague JT Tarmel and his wife, Tally Tarmel. His colleague was less than impressed with his date being crashed, but Eve turned out to be a rather very skilled pool player, unlike Malcolm. Trying to act flirty she asked him to profile her. He did and was doing a rather impressive job until he dug too deep bringing up her tattoo and a possibly deceased family member. Overcome with emotion she left. That night she went to Malcolm's apartment to explain herself and he immediately apologized. He admitted he has some quirks and is less than normal. She said she didn't mind and they soon began making out. Hours later she woke up on the floor, while Malcolm was having one of his night terrors. He was thrashing a kitchen knife at an invisible person in front of him, while she screamed at him to wake up. He did, but not before scaring both of them.

Malcolm admitted that Eve had refused to talk to him, and ignored him every time he reached out to communicate with her. Understandable, given he'd had a major mental lapse from his psyche.

Eve is bam-barred when Jessica calls her, wanting to know why she hasn't returned her son's phone calls. There was noise on the other end, and Malcolm voice rings through the phone. He apologizes for his mother, and she reluctantly accepts his apology and he offers to make them dinner, but not as a date. A couple days later he makes them food in an apologizes for his behavior, and she again accepts. Their night is cut short when he is called in to work. Later that week Eve stops by Jessica's house to celebrate their win at court. And while she is in the other room, Eve goes to the basement and finds a wooden box and climbs in, before closing it.

While having lunch with Jessica, Eve is oddly confronted by her daughter, Ainsley, who asks about her adoption and upbringing. Eve becomes uncomfortable and excuses herself. Eve goes to Malcomes and interrupts them at his apartment, and admits there is a connection to her and the Girl in the Box. Revealing she believes Martin killed her sister 20 years ago, and that's the sole reason she came to New York, but insisting her feelings for Malcolm were real. They part ways, both incredibly upset, but days later find each other, and Malcolm is able to identify the photo of her sister, as the girl in the box.

It was discovered that Sophie Sanders is Eve's older sister. It was discovered that her sister is alive and in hiding from Nicholas Endicott.  Weeks later, Eve was murdered by an assassin Eddie, hired by Nicholas Endicott.  Two weeks later, after learning that Sophie was alive, Malcolm meets Sophie who works as a veterinarian under an alias and learned that after she and Eve were reunited, Sophie killed the assassin Eddie for killing her. Malcolm later apologized for what he and his father had put her though. Allowing her to secretly go free.
