The Rescue Squad Detective Leader Mya Peterson Nicky Roth

Maritza Esposito, also known as The Brave, is one of the main characters of the Hello Neighbor books and is one of the Secret Neighbor kids' classes. She is Enzo Esposito‘s younger sister.

"Though she's the youngest of the rescue squad, Maritza has the deepest personal connection to the Peterson story. As the third member of the original Golden Apple Young Inventors Club, she watched as first her pal Lucy Yi and then presumably her bestie Mya Peterson were destroyed by the insanity of the Neighbor. Despite her tragic past as the last survivor of this friend circle, Maritza remains an optimist in the face of Mr. Peterson's strange evil.

She knows that there are terrible things in this world, but she chooses to fight back with the hope that justice can be served."

Appearance

Maritza has blue hair and green-blue eyes. Her pink baseball cap is backwards on her head, and she has war paint drawn under her eyes. Maritza has a pink shirt under her blue overalls. On her back is a place to store her bat. Maritza also has black gloves, black elbow and knee pads, white shin-high socks and red and white sneakers. Her nose is small and she is short.

Her appearance can be changed thanks to the daily shop, or rather the things that are sold there. Some are complete outfit changes or palette changes.

Storyline

Hello Neighbor: Reset Day

Many years have passed since Nicky was in Raven Brooks, and Maritza's brother, Enzo, went missing on November 1st. Maritza is looking after Enzo's kids, Jess and Jordy. She is their Aunt. Raven Brooks has been caught in a time loop that randomly rewinds the date to November 2nd, a day after Enzo went missing. Maritza and Piper's father's cousin, Marcia Tillman all have special rings that stop them from being affected by the loop. Everyone but them acts as if Enzo just went missing, and every time the same events happen, but slightly changed. She is trying to find a way to get her brother back.
