Neil S. Plakcy è un autore affermato degli Stati Uniti, specializzato in mystery, romance, thriller e romanzi gay & lesbian. È particolarmente noto per la sua serie Mahu Investigations e la serie di misteri Golden Retriever. Plakcy ha apportato un significativo contributo alla letteratura gay e ha raggiunto la finale del Lambda Award nella categoria del Miglior Romanzo Mystery Gay. Molti dei suoi romanzi mystery sono ambientati nell'esotica location delle Hawaii.
Plakcy è nato a Trenton, New Jersey, e ha completato i suoi studi all'Università della Pennsylvania con una laurea in scrittura creativa. Durante il suo periodo all'università, ha conosciuto i famosi romanzi Carlos Fuentes e Philip Roth. Successivamente, si è iscritto alla Columbia University e si è laureato presso la sua scuola di business con un MBA in gestione immobiliare e operazioni. Dopo aver lavorato per una società di sviluppo di giochi, Plakcy ha avuto l'opportunità di studiare per un MFA in scrittura creativa mentre lavorava come produttore in South Florida. Ha conseguito il suo MFA presso l'Università internazionale della Florida nel 1992 ed è stato membro della prima classe a ricevere questo titolo. Gli istruttori di Plakcy includevano James W. Hall, Les Standiford e Lynne Barrett, e i suoi compagni di classe includevano Christine Kling, Barbara Parker, Vicki Hendricks e Dennis Lehane.
Plakcy è un amante degli animali e ha scritto la serie di misteri Golden Retriever, ispirata dai suoi stessi golden retriever, Samwise, Brody e Griffin. Gli piace scrivere mystery cosy così come mystery gay, M/M romance e gay erotica. Il primo romanzo pubblicato di Plakcy è stato Mahu, che presenta un detective di omicidi di Honolulu di nome Kimo Kanapa'aka. Plakcy ha messo molto di sé in Kimo e ha scritto su di lui per molti anni. Plakcy attualmente risiede a Hollywood, in Florida, con il suo partner e i loro golden retriever.
