Biography: Dorothy Langridge majored in Russian literature, back in the late 70s/early 80s, when it seemed that a working knowledge of the Russian language was her ticket to a good, solid job with the United Nations or the State Department. Instead, it was the CIA who found her and took her on, at a job fair at her campus when she was just a few months from graduating. From such mundane beginnings are stone-cold bitches born.
She'd always been on the no-nonsense side, but her more than twenty years of working in the (sometimes literally) cut-throat atmosphere of the CIA's home office have refined her into a hardass on a spectacular level. She doesn't care about you or your 'problems'. She doesn't respect you. She doesn't see why she needs to put herself out for you. She is, however, willing to listen to reason.
And she probably does actually like you, assuming you have a brain and a spine. She just has an odd way of showing it.

Trivia: A pack-a-day smoker with a definite taste for single-malt Scotch, Langridge is also absolutely terrifying behind the wheel, and not in the way Nate is. She's transcended 'aggressive driver' and entered 'road warrior' territory; fortunately, she's also a pretty good driver. Still, she has a fairly complicated history of fender-benders.

Author's note: Dorothy Langridge was something of a last-minute addition to Double Down (albeit a highly successful one). I figured Sandy shouldn't be the only kick-ass chick around.
