person
Ike Ronson
A Broken Dawn Division Agent whose apparent cooperation conceals an operation directed through the Mantis codename and aimed at the novel's antiviral lead.
Trusted Agent, hidden operation
Ike enters the published premise as an Agent on the antiviral investigation. The novel later makes him the operational link between that team and a remote handler using the Mantis codename. [1][2]
ISAC ambiguity
The novel uses an ISAC-status countermeasure to make Ike's betrayal more complicated than a simple, visible Rogue flag. It does not, however, identify Mantis's organization or prove a connection to a different Mantis codename elsewhere in the archive. [2]
