Fiona Snyckers was born in Johannesburg. She studied at Rhodes University and the University of the Witwatersrand. She took a first-class Masters's degree in English Literature.
She authored the Eulalie Park Mysteries series, the Cat's Paw Cozy Mysteries, the Secondhand Witch Cozy Mysteries, and the Time Mavericks time-travel adventure series. She has also published various short stories and stand-alone novels.
Snyckers is also the creator of Trinity Luhabe, a beloved character in South African young adult fiction.
"South African teens deal with serious, life-changing issues every day. I have never seen the point in trying to shelter them from situations in fiction that they are dealing with in real life. That said, I believe my Trinity books handle weighty issues with a light touch," the author says.
