NINA

A talented young woman from San Moritz. Nina attends one of the schools near Mrs. Hinze's boarding house. However, her talent doesn't lie in academia. Rather, she's very mechanically inclined—an unusual, and rarely encouraged skill for a woman in this time period.

Her father secured her a job at a local auto shop. However, the owner has no intention of letting someone so young, let alone a woman, actually take part in the tasks of repairing automobiles. Frustrated at having been relegated to custodial work, Mrs. Hinze gives her a chance to shine by becoming the boarding house's "manager". With that position, she has the opportunity to fix whatever might break or fail in the house.
