Rivke Ingber was the alias assumed by Anni Tudeer, a fictional Neo-Nazi and would-be future leader of the National Socialist Action Army. While she was introduced as an ally the 1983 James Bond novel Icebreaker by John Gardner, she was revealed posthumously to be a double agent.
Biography[]
Early Life[]
Much of Ingber's life is a mystery, as she died still posing as Bond's ally. She claimed to be part Sámi through her mother, an indigenous people in Scandinavia, but the truth of the statement is unverifiable. She may have been born in the Nazi pavilion hidden in Paraguay to Aarne Tudeer, a former SS officer in hiding. She claimed to have escaped her father, converted to Judaism and gone to work for Mossad in Israel, but in reality she was groomed from birth to succeed her father as the next Fuhrer.
Icebreaker[]
As part of a plan to deliver James Bond to the Soviet Authorities, Anni assumed the name of "Rivke Ingber," an agent of Mossad, the Israeli security agency to take part in the hoax of "Operation: Icebreaker," an inter-agency collaboration between the CIA, KGB, SIS, and Mossad to investigate the NSAA terrorists' source of stolen military equipment at the Blue Hare arms depot in Russia. According to plan, all members of the Icebreaker team were working with the NSAA to capture Bond, but when the SIS sent another operative by the name of Cliff Dudley, She worked with her teammates to compromise him by goading him into punching Brad Tirpitz of the CIA to defend Rivke. Bond was sent as his replacement.
The three met with Bond at the Reid's Hotel in Funchal, Portugal, where Rivke approached Bond at the lunch buffet and explained the situation with Dudley. The two got on well, and the group planned to travel North to the Hotel Revontuli in Finland, where they would base their mission to Blue Hare. Late that night, she went to Bond's room and claimed to want protection after Tirpitz made lewd comments to her. Bond, already knowing that something was amiss in Icebreaker, confronted her with her birthname and her father's Nazi medals. She fed him a fabricated origin story of escaping her father and joining Mossad, and the two had sex. In the morning, Rivke went for a ski to clear her head, but in reality, it was a ploy. NSAA operative Paula Vacker, a friend of Bond's, called him to tell him to "say goodbye to Anni," before a charge hidden in the slope went off, apparently breaking both of Rivke's legs. She remained on the slope and Bond brought her down with a Schermuly Pains-Wessex Speedline line-throwing device. Tying the line under her arms, Rivke was slowly reeled in down the slope, where NSAA operatives disguised as police and an ambulance took her away.
In reality, Rivke was completely unharmed and resided at the NSAA Ice Palace, and was brought out after torturing Bond failed to bring out information on the NSAA man in SIS custody, Bond was placed in a hospital next to Rivke with her legs in two dummy casts. Trusting her, Bond revealed the prisoner's location just before Paula Vacker, who was in reality an agent of SUPO Finnish intelligence, entered and shot out the bedside lamps, in which the microphones recording the conversation were stored. Rivke pulled a gun on her and stood up to shoot, but Paula killed her first and they left her toppled over the bed and splattered on the hospital wall.
