About the author
J.C. Moore
25 books30 followersJ.C. Moore writes suspense-driven thrillers rooted in character, consequence, and the damage left behind when secrets refuse to stay buried. His stories focus on ordinary people pushed into extraordinary situations, where loyalty is tested, violence has weight, and every decision leaves a mark.
Before turning to fiction, Moore worked a wide range of jobs, including bartender, IT tech, touring musician, horse farm manager, and restaurant owner. His music has appeared in television and film, but storytelling is now his full focus.
Moore is the author of the Shadow Bay Thriller series and the Frank Mallory novels, both set in tight communities where familiarity can be as dangerous as the unknown. His characters are not heroes or monsters. They are people under pressure, shaped by loss, love, and hard choices.
He lives in upstate New York with his partner and their small but fierce dog, where long roads disappear into the woods and the landscape continues to shape the stories he tells.

Another one for the books Mr. Moore!
Another great book! I really liked the majority of the short stories in Tainted.
Some of them are "Tainted", "Beneath the House" and "The Trolls Lament". The only one I can say that wasn't really something I'd gravitate to reading was the Western. I can't wait to read more from Mr. Moore. I've read from most of his backlist, so I can still attest to his writing improving and in terms of the gore, disturbing, and dark content from him.. It's always an entertaining time.
