C# GetValue from JSON

I have a NodeJS Server and a C# Unity Client. The NodeJS server sends an object to the C# client.

SERVER

        var obj = new Object();
        obj.name = data.name;
        obj.position  = data.position;
        var jsonString= JSON.stringify(obj);

C# Client

            try
            {
                Debug.Log(response.ToString()); // WORKS the result is
                /*
                [
                   {
                      "name": "Peter",
                      "position": "(13.6, 1.5, 2.3)"
                   }
                ]
                */

                Debug.Log(response.GetValue(1).ToString()); // Don't work, receive in console (ERROR).
            }
            catch
            {
                Debug.Log("Error");
            }

Output

            [
               {
                  "name": "Peter",
                  "position": "(13.6, 1.5, 2.3)"
               }
            ]

So I try to read the JSON to get the Value Name and Position.

I have already tried the following:

string resVal1 = response.GetValue<string>();
Enemy resVal2 = response.GetValue<Enemy>(1);


string enemyName= response.GetValue(1).Value<string>("name");

I also only get "Error" here. What am I doing wrong? How do I get name and position from the JSON string. I have not much experience with JSON.

The JSON returned is an array with a single element, that element is an object with 2 properties - one of which is name so I suspect he correct code to read that would be:

string enemyName= response.GetValue(0).Value<string>("name");
