Joanne Sterling

Joanne Sterling was a Superintendant for Scotland yard and both Robert Ryunosuke's and Sharon Stanford's superior. She was the original head of the Aurora Kuis-case.

Trivia

 * In her debut chapter, she is only seen at the end. In the rest of the chapter, Aurora Kuis appears, in a Sterling-disguise. Velvet Bullet distinguished the two ladies by giving the real Sterling freckles.
 * Sterling states that (on her mother's side) she's a descendant of the Hartright family. The character guide confirms that her great-great-grandfather was Walter Hartright from The Woman in White.
