One for the Money Characters

Stephanie Plum

Stephanie Plum is a 30-year-old resident of Trenton, New Jersey - specifically a neighborhood known as "The Burg". Stephanie is 5'7" and weighs 127 pounds, regardless of her penchant for donuts, Pino's pizza, and beer. A sometime unruly mop of brown curly hair brushes her shoulders, setting off brown eyes. There are no tattoos or distinguishing marks.

The Plum family is of Italian-Hungarian descent, which lends its fair share of temper and impetuousness to the heroine. Determined to remain independent, Stephanie has no qualms about running home to the Plum family home where she can lick her wounds over a nice pot roast and some pineapple upside down cake. Much to the family's dismay, Stephanie is a divorcee who was married "all of five minutes" and has yet to find someone who is both strong and yet tolerant of her newly acquired job as a bounty hunter.
