Delia Peabody is a Detective in the New York City Police Department and works under Lieutenant Eve Dallas. She recently recovered from an injury received in the line of duty, and is celebrating a complete recovery. Delia's partner and love of her life is the Electronic Detectives Division hotshot, Ian McNab. Ian recently gave her a four leaf clover pendant for luck and to celebrate her recovery. She tells Dallas that it makes her feel warm inside to wear it. Delia is a Free-Ager who believes in karma (often referring to it as cosmic balancing). She is larger in frame than she would like to be, often comparing herself to those more petite in size.
