V. I. [Victoria Iphigenia] Warshawski was introduced by Sara Paretsky in her debut novel Indemnity Only (1982) and she has written more than twenty novels featuring Warshawski as the protagonist. Thus, Paretsky created the Warshawski series in the literary world. Warshawski is a private investigator whose parents are dead and she herself is divorced. She is the first hard-boiled woman P.I. who could be a member of the police department in Chicago and she is always out on mean streets if it is necessary. Though her cases often involve patriarchal institutions like the banks, local government, corporations and churches, yet in the end, she links up with the people she knows. Even though it involves the people she knows she doesn’t stop chasing the mystery until it gets resolved. Thus, they named her well, Victoria Iphigenia- it means ‘Artemis the huntress’ according to Greek Legend, this is the myth of Iphigenia. The other meaning can be found as ‘strong-born’. She is a woman who does not run to men in a time of trouble. As a result, characters like Warshawski drop a remark on the readers.
