Jennifer Lonoff Schiff began her career as a fact-checker for a national magazine. She went on to work as a writer and editor for several magazine and book publishers, eventually starting her own marketing communications company before becoming an author.

​

While vacationing on Sanibel, Florida, the seashell capital of the United States, Jennifer fell in love with the island and was inspired to write a mystery that took place there.

​

When the first book in the Sanibel Island Mystery series, A Shell of a Problem, became a bestseller, Jennifer decided to focus on writing books full time. There are now eight books in the Sanibel Island Mystery series, with more on the way.

​

Jennifer has also penned a novel, Tinder Fella, a rom-com set in New York City, and a mystery set in Tuscany, Something's Cooking in Chianti.

​

When not writing, Jennifer can be found on the beach, in a bookstore, or snuggling with her two cats.
