Tara (Verdigris)

Tara was a secret agent who was friends with Jo Grant.

Jo and Tara went to school together. Tara was employed as an assistant to an eccentric freelance gentleman adventurer working for the Ministry, which Jo thought of as a job similar to her own, though she looked down on Tara's intelligence work as "swanning about in vintage cars, doing judo and wearing a selection of not-very-convincing wigs."

When Jo was in London, she stayed with Tara. At the time, Tara was getting lots of telephone calls because agents higher-up in the Ministry were getting into trouble. (PROSE: Verdigris)
