Detective Bjorn interrupts brief vacation (6)

I believe the answer is:

holmes

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'detective' is the definition.
(Sherlock Holmes)

'bjorn interrupts brief vacation' is the wordplay.
'bjorn' becomes 'me' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'interrupts' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'brief vacation' becomes 'hols' (short for holidays; 'brief' indicates an abbreviation).
'me' inserted within 'hols' is 'HOLMES'.

Can you help me to learn more?
