Do it. Fire me. And if -- when -- whatever happened to Kate comes to light, enjoy the blowback for quashing an active investigation.
— Naomi Silverhawk[1]

Naomi Silverhawk, a character in the Veil of Secrets book, was one of the deputies of the Birchport Police Department until she was fired in Chapter 11. She is also one of your love interests. She makes her first appearance in Chapter 2.

Appearance

Naomi has black hair tied in a ponytail, brown eyes and tan skin. She wears a sand brown police uniform over a gray top. Her casual look consists of a black top under a light brown jacket and black pants.

Personality

She is dedicated to solving the mystery behind Kate's disappearance, even when her boss Tommy refuses to, indicating her strong belief in justice.

Despite her no-nonsense approach to solving cases, she also has a soft side, such as reading a lot of romance novels, which she admits to enjoying because of their happy endings.

In a premium scene in Chapter 9, she mentions that she loves the helpful community aspect of Birchport but feels frustrated by the elites due to their superior haughty attitudes. 

In Chapter 11, she mentions she's had trouble making friends in Birchport due to the town's locals being unfriendly towards outsiders.

Biography

She first appears in the second chapter. Unlike the other police officers who show up to investigate the crime, Chief Tommy Walsh and Officer Jeff Duffy, Naomi is actually willing to investigate the case. She and Your Character search the area of the house; during this time, if you get the premium choice, you can spend some personal time with her in a cabin where you can become closer to her and learn about her past. Either way, you find Kate's wedding veil abandoned near tire tracks, strengthening the case that Kate was kidnapped.

In the third chapter, she and Your Character try to no avail to convince Chief Walsh to investigate the case. She's unable to officially help, but she promises Your Character she won't let this case go unsolved.

Naomi appears in the fourth chapter only if you don't get the premium choice to head to the yacht with Flynn O'Malley. Naomi enters Kate's house, surprised to find Your Character there, and warns you that conducting this investigation is dangerous without training, just as Your Character gets the call from Flynn that Tanner is dead.

In Chapter 7, Naomi helps you search for Kate throughout Crescent Lake after Flynn is injured when a Dusk Avalon runs your car off the road. She helps you search a locked room in a cabin (premium choice) where it is discovered that someone has been stalking the Sterling family and is keeping tabs on cargo from Eastern Europe. The two of you eventually find Kate drugged and disoriented in the cabin's basement.

In Chapter 9, Naomi and Duffy are working a security detail at the Sterlings' annual 4th of July gala. She is later fired by Chief Walsh in Chapter 11.
