Character Analysis
(Avoiding Spoilers)
Overview... an “existential detective,” which means she acts like a private investigator– but investigates one’s philosophical dilemmas in life. Her husband and business partner Bernard teams up with her on almost ever case, using their expertise in tandem, solving mysteries of the spirit and soul without giving hokey estimates based on palm-reading or pseudoscience.
Personality… eccentric and agile. Vivian is devoted to her subjects and would willingly dive through a car window with surprising grace in order to avoid detection and continue her investigation. She has an open heart toward all– except Caterine Vauban, who was once the Jaffe’s protégé, but has forgone their form of existentialism for a more nihilistic approach.
