Nicholas Trubachev appears briefly as a tense, nervous presence, his body betraying agitation in clenched hands and bouncing legs. The book gives him no developed personal arc beyond this glimpse.

Description

Trubachev is tall and lean, all narrow lines and raw bones, with long legs and large, bony hands. His expression is described as rodent-like, giving his face a wary, pinched quality. He grips his hands until the knuckles turn white and cannot keep his legs still. His clothing, coloring, and eye or hair details are not specified.
