olive-skinned Mediterranean, smooth. deep auburn, jaw-length, sleek bob tucked neatly behind one ear hair. dark brown, almost black, almond-shaped eyes. heart-shaped face, sharp cheekbones, fine straight nose, pointed chin, softly full lips. average, slim, elegant, narrow shoulders, narrow waist, average hips. small gold stud earrings. thin pale scar near the left wrist.
