Isabel Alves-Vettoretto

Maria Isabel Duarte Alves-Vettoretto is a Portuguese intelligence and operations consultant and former case officer for the CIA. She initially appeared as a special assistant to DigiFlood CEO Anton Ozmian in City of Endless Night.

Alves-Vettoretto is compact and athletic, with brown eyes, long rich mahogany hair, and a precise, disciplined manner that has been described as "remorselessly efficient." She is equally comfortable planning and executing an intricate multifaceted cyberattack as she is leading a detachment of field operatives.

Alves-Vettoretto was a CIA case officer during the Iraq War, masterfully handling a network of operatives and informants that she naturally grew to care for greatly. When the Coalition forces pulled out of the region, her people were abandoned by the agency, their promised exit visas denied even as ISIS swept in and murdered the agents and their families.

Disillusioned and hardened by the betrayal, she moved to the private sector. She found her skillset meshed nicely with the technology and politics of the business world, and spent years working with streaming tech giant DigiFlood in a variety of capacities to founder and CEO Anton Ozmian. It was in this capacity that she first crossed paths with Special Agent Pendergast, during his investigation into the murder of Ozmian's daughter, chronicled in City of Endless Night.

Afterward, Alves-Vettoretto found her way to a clandestine organization focused on weaponizing toxoplasmosis, in a type of security advisor role that once again brought her face-to-face with Pendergast when she led a team sent to capture him during the events of Crooked River.

Her current whereabouts are unknown.
