Location

Jennifer is a South Australian author. Her writing draws on her love of history, music and mythology as she explores the stories left untold in conventional historical accounts. She has written three novels: Stolen (2025), Missing Pieces (MidnightSun, 2023), Vivaldi’s Lost Concerto (2019).

Her former work as a social worker provides her with a rich source of material to develop her colourful and complex characters and compelling plots. She lives and works on Kaurna land overlooking the fabulous Sturt Gorge Park and often travels to beautiful and enchanting places to explore the settings found in her work.
