* [[Action Girl]]: Donnatella Rahnn, Italian/Israeli assassin. When someone was trying to kill her, she [[Man Bites Man|tore his ear off with her teeth]].
* [[Black and Grey Morality]]: Pretty much of necessity.
Line 54 ⟶ 57:
* [[Killed Off for Real]]: {{spoiler|Anna Reilly}}
* [[Military Brat]]: Irene Kennedy.
* [["Not Making This Up" Disclaimer]]: [[Matter of Life and Death|Understandably]] inverted in ''Transfer of Power'': the Author's Note mentions that some of the included details are faked for the protection of the President and of the Secret Service.
* [[Not So Stoic]]: Mitch finds out that {{spoiler|the bomb blast that severely injured him has also killed his wife, immediately after he wakes up in a hospital.}} His boss {{spoiler|(who already knows of the death)}} arrives to give him this news, but her hesitancy makes it painfully clear to him. Once she finally confirms it out loud, he {{spoiler|[[Big No|takes it pretty badly]] and has to be restrained and tranquilized. Then, [[Manly Tears|all he can do is shed a tear...]]}}
* [[One Steve Limit]]: Played with, in ''Transfer of Power''. The characters must consult with Mossad before they can ascertain whether a certain terrorist they've confirmed to be inside the White House is either an Iraqi vault-breaker or a zealous Palestinian youth. Played straight, however, in every other example.
