Colin Atkinson
Played By Tristan Rogers
Written By Darlene
March 7, 2014

When Colin Atkinson arrived in Genoa City, he'd just gotten out of prison in
Australia, and he told no one that he was involved in organized crime or that he
was still married to Genevieve. Under false pretenses, he got Jill Fenmore to
fall in love with him, and they were married, though not legally. After causing
much trouble, including kidnapping his grandchildren, Charlie and Mattie Ashby,
he was run out of town back to Australia and prison.
Colin is the father of Cane Ashby. He had two other children with Genevieve:
Caleb and Samantha. Both are deceased. Cane and Lily don't want to have
anything to do with Colin, but he is determined to win their trust, now that he
is back in town.
On the night of a benefit in Delia Abbott's name, Colin's associates tried to
steal a doll that was being auctioned. The doll was filled with diamonds.
Things didn't go as planned and the guests were held hostage. When one gunman
threatened Cane, Colin shot him. He pretended to know nothing about the
diamonds. Many people consider him a hero while others are still suspicious.
