Deb Richardson-Moore is a former journalist and former pastor of a church whose parishioners included homeless people. Those experiences combined in her first four books -- a 2012 memoir about her early years at the Triune Mercy Center, and the three-book Branigan Powers mystery series featuring a news reporter and a homeless man.

She has now turned to darker domestic thrillers with the release of "Murder, Forgotten" in 2020.

Deb lives in Greenville, SC, with her husband. They are the parents of three adult children.

I liked that this book didn't start with a devious nanny coming to an unsuspecting family. It was a different beginning, and all the better for it, though the ending was a little weak. ...more

Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy

Mesmerizing story set on an island between Antarctica and Australia. Slowly, expertly, the author reveals things about the plot -- and about the state of the world.

Quotes by Deb Richardson-Moore  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“That was the thing about being homeless. We know how other people live because we’ve lived it. But they haven’t lived like us. So really, when you thought about it, the homeless had a much wider world view. They knew more. They’d seen more. So where did the others get off being so disrespectful? Being so dismissive? Being so downright superior?”
Deb Richardson-Moore, The Cantaloupe Thief
