A brittle, discreet informant in Avasarala's network who feeds her intelligence on fleet movements.
Gloria Tannenbaum is a well-placed contact in Avasarala's web of informants. Careful and tradecraft-minded — she assumes all lines are monitored and never tells her own sources anything true — she calls to warn Avasarala that the warship *Mikhaylov* is being pulled off patrol and sent deep to Ganymede on Admiral Nguyen's orders, intelligence that lets Avasarala move to gut his covert fleet.
A woman with a thin, eyebrowless face and a clean, brittle smile that is as close as she comes to genuine emotion; sharp, crow-like movements.
A discreet informant supplying Avasarala with fleet intelligence.
