Hawthorne Holmes

Hawthorne Holmes is a minor character mentioned in Nanu's Revenge. She is noted in being the first female Interpol officer.

Description
Her photo was old, and the colours were fading, but in the photo, Nanu could see she had short, blonde hair and deep blue eyes. She was wearing a black men’s trousers and a dark grey men’s shirt underneath her uniform. Her uniform was navy blue, with bronze cufflinks and buttons, while golden-yellow epaulets hung down from the shoulders. She too, like Naomi, had a stylised Toucannon on her left shoulder.

Before Nanu's Revenge
Hawthorne Holmes is Finbarr’s granddaughter and was the first woman police officer. She too, was tomboyish, not unlike Naomi. She faked her sex and dressed as a male, confusing people. But one night, while taking a bath while she was ill, her partner came to check on her, only to stumble into her room and noticed that she had breasts. She got into some serious trouble, but her captain cared about her enough that they let her stay.

In Nanu's Revenge
Nanu comments about how she may have gotten ideas from her, but she says no, as she didn't know who she was until she started working there.
