Miss Luba Luft
A powerful executive at the Rosen organization, a large business that manufactures androids. Eldon Rosen only appears in one scene of the novel, but his presence casts a shadow over the entire book. Rosen seems utterly indifferent when Rachael Rosen (who is supposedly his niece) discovers that she’s really an android—he has absolutely no sympathy for his company’s products. In this way, his behavior sets the tone for a dark, bleak novel in which, contrary to Wilbur Mercer’s wishes, nobody seems to have much empathy at all.

Eldon Rosen said, "No. We programmed her completely.”
“But I think toward the end she suspected." To the girl he said, "You guessed when he asked for one more try."
Pale, Rachael nodded fixedly.
