Sometimes, I struggle with thrillers when the pacing is off. However, Murder, Forgotten was well-paced and thoroughly enjoyable. It is one of the best things I have read in recent times. I enjoyed the writing style and would recommend her work to anyone. However, I felt that this book wasn’t a standout for me.

*3 stars*

A solid mystery with lots of suspects who have their own reasons for murdering the famous author Julianna and her husband. The close knit Charleston beach community are all harbouring secrets that make them all appear guilty of these murders. The book also deals with dementia, mother/daughter relationships and the unique ability that some artistic people possess to zone out when they are deep into their craft.

Julianna Burke is a best selling mystery novelist and she is slowly losing her memory. Her loving husband Connor is murdered and Julianna is desperate to know what happened and she battles her failing mind to investigate. She's afraid she may have killed him but she just can't remember.

This was a really good whodunit, and you're not sure if Julianna is really losing her mind or just disappearing into her fantasy world of stories. There are lots of neighbours and friends who are potential suspects and it really keeps you guessing until the end.

Main Character Julianna, who is a best selling writer for mystery but she has has a secret that those who is closer to her are hiding from the entire world. She is is losing her memory, but her story telling has brought her to fame from this.

Another devastating blast comes when her husband Connor is tragically murdered. Her mind can't grip that reality due to her memory problems, so in which her assistant has to break it to her.

She is really desperate to know what actually happened to her husband. She battles with her mind in which is to investigate. Details of the murder of Connor comes to light in what really makes her question everything. She must fight to find the truth of it When even though her grip on reality is failing slowly....

This was a 4 Star Read for me⭐⭐⭐⭐

Julianna is a best-selling mystery author who is secretly fighting memory loss. When her own husband is murdered, she must face the reality that she may never be able to solver her own mystery....

Murder, Forgotten was an enjoyable read from start to finish. I liked the premise -a writer of murder mystery books who has to solve her own murder mystery, and on top of that she is fighting dementia. Can she find out who killed her husband? What if she killed him?

A total page turner!

Although "Murder, Forgetten" starts off slightly slow and very confused, it quickly becomes a thriller filled with breakneck twists and turns.

While I didn't love the killer's identity, I really enjoyed the journey there. I definately plan on checking out other books by Richardson-Moore!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the chance to enjoy this book!

Thank you Netgalley and Lion Hudson Ltd for an ARC of this book.This review and the comments are my honest opinion.
Julianne Burkes is a well-know mystery writer who is unfortunately showing signs of dementia. As this excellent thriller opens Julianna’s husband has been killed and she is desperate to find out who would have wanted to kill her husband and why.
There are a number of suspects in this thriller by Deb Richardson-Moore and the author does an excellent job of building each character that at any point in this story you are sure you know who the killer is. This was a thoroughly interesting book and new author for me and I look forward to reading another thriller by this author.

The plot was really intriguing and I enjoyed all the twists throughout the whole story. But, the story felt really confusing and stretched at the first few pages and got a bit bored out. But again loved how the ending was written.

I'd like to thank the author, publisher and Net Galley for providing a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

This was my first book by this author, and I LOVE mysteries. Especially really good mysteries. Something that challenges and makes me think, grabs me and pulls me in to the story. Even if I 'solve' the mystery early on in the book, if the characters are well developed and the story is engaging, I don't mind if I know 'who dun it'.

This was a great book for me. The story about the author loosing her memory and then dealing with the death of her husband, how she reacts to that, the character development really pulled me in and I wanted to see what was next. It was a fast paced mystery book, and a bit of a book within a book, which can be challenging to do well, but I think this author really pulled that off.

I'll be sure to look for other titles by this author.

A marvellous title for a marvellous book that was engaging, twisty, subtle and misleading. All the good things that a murder mystery deserves to have lots of. The people were all believable and the whole book came together to produce a very satisfactory "last page".

If you like a really good murder mystery, treat yourself to Murder, Forgotten.

Was this review helpful?

Julianna is losing her memory and has lost her husband. In the aftermath, she is trying to put the pieces together including trying to determine if she is the one who murdered him! The plot and telling of the story felt like a classic mystery with numerous characters and dangerous secrets. At times, I felt there were too many characters and too many secrets. I was getting turned around trying to keep them all organized and wasn't able to really feel like I knew any of them enough to know whether they might be the murderer. This is my only complaint. Otherwise I remained enthralled and one step behind the author through the entire book. I look forward to more from this author.

Julianna is a best selling author with a secret, she is losing her memory. Told in alternating POVs from Julianna and her daughter Logan, they try and solve the murder of Julianna’s husband Connor. Can Julianna remember before it is too late?

I was changing my guess on what would happen until the very end. Those twists.

A good who done it but you have to get over the start which had me more confused than Jules. It was a clever idea and very twisty. I didn’t love it though but a decent read.

Reminiscent of Agatha Christie, Murder Forgotten is a wonderful, old-fashioned murder mystery that kept me guessing up to the very end. With layers of hidden clues and a mid-book plot twist that had me sitting up and saying, “What!?! No!”—I absolutely loved this book!

It’s a warm day in February on Sullivan’s Island, SC and neighbors and friends have gathered for an impromptu cocktail party at at the home of author Julianna Burke and her husband Connor. The next day, Connor is dead and everyone is a suspect.

There’s one big problem. Julianna, although desperate to discover her husband’s killer, is in the early stages of dementia. Slipping in and out of a mental fog, she tries desperately to remember what happened the day Connor died. Her daughter Logan, staying with her mother at the beach house, is investigating on her own. As the two women move closer to the truth, devastating secrets are revealed, secrets that they might not survive.

Told in the alternating voices of Julianna and Logan, this dark and heartbreaking mystery grabs you from the first pages, set in an eerie cold Spring in Scotland. The plot quickens after Julianna returns to South Carolina. The settings are evocatively described, the characters are realistic and the story is suspenseful with a totally unexpected ending. I especially loved the fragile Julianna who bravely fights losing her memories. 5 stars.

Thank you to NetGalley, Lion Hudson Ltd and Deb Richardson-Moore for this ARC.

This is a HUGE case of WHODUNIT! I couldn’t let go of this book. Julianna is a famous mystery author, her husband is murdered, she is also losing her memory, and even though she knows she’s damn losing it, she keep recreating the moments in her head, and she really wants to find out what happened to her husband Connor, and who would want him dead.

The author of this book kept adding to the mystery, that I had to second guess who killed Connor. First, I thought it was one person then its someone else, then Logan, whose Julianna’s daughter, starts to peace what happened the day her step dad died, she was even asking questions, and being very involved. She even had to break down her relationship with her own mother, which wasn’t the best, since her mothers main focus was Connor more than anything. But imagine if someone in your circle had a whole bunch of secrets, and you as a reader didn’t even see it coming? YEA I was shoketh!

Thank you to NetGalley and Lion Hudson Ltd for this ARC.

'Murder, Forgotten' was a good mystery that needed some time to get warm with. I found the beginning slow with too much thoughts and dialogue, but at some point - I think when the story's focus switched more and more to Julianna's daughter - I got hooked and really dug into it. The solution to the murder was cleverly built and concealed long enough, with several surprises along the read. The premise of the story, that famous author Julianna Burke starts showing signs of dementia, forgetting the death of her husband and having to be reminded of it each new day, in the end doubting herself and her actions, even believing she might have something to do with the murder, was really tragic, but the resulting turn of events was even more sad. An interesting new twist on the mystery genre that kept me guessing and provided some entertaining reading time.

An easy read with a few suspects and an interesting story. It is not a stand out book but still worth a read.

A unique story that starts with a murder and builds mystery from there.
Julianna Burke, a best selling celebrity author, is slowly losing her memory. She is working hard to finish a book when her husband is murdered in their home. The investigation discovers that her husband is killed in the same manner as the death in her latest book, the one she keeps starting and stopping. The worst part, she keeps forgetting her husband is dead.

Burke's daughter returns home to aid in the investigation of her beloved step father's death. Mother and daughter were never close, so she discovers her mother's condition upon her arrival. In order to find who murdered their husband/ father, they must join forces to overcome Julianna's memory and the killer's attempts to stop them.

WOW! This was a well thought out mystery/ thriller. The back story is terrific, the characters exactly right. Clues come quickly and well disguised. A 5 star read that you won't figure out until the reveal.

Deb Richardson-Moore brings us a modern southern mystery, a family drama, set in Charleston and Sullivan's Island, North Carolina, a small, insular community of lifelong friends, and on the Eastern coast of Scotland, along the Fife Coastal Path. Our story is told from the vantage point of Logan Arnette, mid-20s, an artist and office maven for a physician's office in Charleston. Logan is the daughter of well-known mystery novelist Julianna Burke, and step-daughter of Connor Burke. Julianna is going through a mental crisis in the midst of writing her seventh mystery and during that period of possible dementia/early Alzheimer's, her beloved husband of 22 years, Connor, is murdered in their home on Sullivan's Island.

The rapidly accelerating confusion Julianna is suffering and the possibility that she might be in danger herself convinces Sheriff Royson of Charleston County to allow Julianna and her live-in assistant Margot to retreat to their second home in Scotland while the investigation into Connors death is underway. When the family home crime scene is released, Logan moves back temporarily from her Charlotte apartment to care for her mother's Shiba Inu, Annabelle, while her mother is overseas. Julianna's dementia symptoms are intensifying daily even isolated in Scotland, and she feels compelled to return home in just a matter of days. At that point, her mom is so frail and confused that Logan feels a need to remain in the family home with her and Margot despite the lengthy daily commute to her job in the city. Representatives of Julianna's publisher are in and out as is Harrison Arnette, Julianna's son and as is normal, the neighbors come and go. But clues are few and far between, and it is reluctantly suspected that perhaps in her altered mental state Julianna may have killed her husband Connor. Everyone who knew them can't believe that. Theirs was the sort of relationship songs are written to honor. Everyone who knew them also had keys to their home where the welcome mat was always out, making for an ever-widening investigation. Julianna though, can't be sure she didn't, which only adds to her mental confusion and angst. Logan would do anything to give her mother peace of mind. But that is something neither law, church or daughter can provide. Is it a mystery Julianna can live with?

I received a free electronic ARC of this novel from Netgalley, Deb Richardson-Moore, and publisher Lion Hudson, LTD. Thank you all for sharing your hard work with me. I have read this novel of my own volition, and this review reflects my honest opinion of this work.

An excellent mystery, well written and highly entertaining.
It's fast paced and I loved the fleshed out and likable cast of characters, the descriptions of the setting, the solid mystery that kept me guessing.
The plot is full of twists and turns, lots of secrets and it's quite dark at times.
I can't wait to read another book by this author, strongly recommended.

Review featured at www.books-n-kisses.com

I picked up this book since it is set in North Carolina, I live in NC albeit on the other side of the state, and I am glad I did.

Julianna is an author who is trying to finish her book before dementia sets in completely but then her husband is murdered and she takes off to Scotland in case she is in danger as well. But within days she heads back to NC where her daughter has moved in.

The investigation deepens when we learn just how many people had keys to the house, and with Julianna’s memory fading quickly she wonders if even she could have done something.

I enjoyed the story. The suspense was palpable and I felt so bad for Julianna at times. Her confusion is heartbreaking. The story was unique and enjoyable. I will be looking for more from this author.

I volunteered to read this book, through netgalley in exchange, for an honest review. This book is well written and the characters are described well. This book has mental health representation. This is the first book I have read by Deb Richardson-Moore and I will definitely read more books by this author in the future. I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone. This writing style in this book will have you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out who did it. This book is in stores now for $12.95 (USD).

This book took me much too long to get through unfortunately. I think the main problem was the over abundance of characters.
The core mystery is really good, lots of great twists and it's not easy to puzzle out who the culprit is, even though there are quite a few clues given. I did figure out some of the twists ahead of time (the "forgotten" part was pretty obvious), but the author has quite a clever explanation for the motive and it made the book shine.
Like I said, I got really bogged down with the sheer number of characters and how they all related to the story. I almost needed to keep a list of who was who and the relationships because there were so many.
Overall, this is a solid mystery with surprises, if you can take the time to sort it all out.

Murder, Forgotten is about a famous mystery writer who is starting to lose her memory. She is in the middle of writing a book but her minds wonders until she is unable to even write. Her husband is murdered in their house while only her and her assistant are home. The book follows her daughter as she tried to find out who killed her stepfather and to manage helping her mother through her dementia. I enjoyed this mystery but thought it was slow at the beginning. However, it picked up and kept me guessing until the end who the killer was. There was a shocking event about 75% in I was not expecting. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an arc for an honest review.

This was an excellent book, and definitely one that was different than most mysteries. Great characters, a compelling tale, and full of mystery, this novel really grabbed my attention from the beginning and kept me coming back for more! I fell in love with the characters early into the book. The mystery surrounding the murder was one that kept you guessing…wondering…pondering. If you enjoy mysteries, this is definitely one you need to grab!

A man killed. A woman's sanity questioned...

I'm still reeling from this one. Murder, Forgotten started off so quietly. Just a lady staying at her vacation house trying to rest as as she can't seem to remember from day to day that her husband is dead. And just her adult daughter trying to come to grips with her stepfather's death and her mother's mental decline.

Just a quiet heart-tugging story... Yeah, well, it didn't stay that way. Next thing you know I'm suspecting everyone of ulterior motives and murder, from the woman's son to the next door neighbor to the local pastor! Seriously, author Deb Richardson-Moore led me on such a wild goose chase I hardly knew what end was up! And yet each clue was intentionally laid out, building on the previous one, and all leading to the final frantic and spine-tingling showdown with a killer. When the author dropped a shocker bombshell about ¾ of the way through, well, I was shocked all right, and shaken. It was a gutsy move on her part but well played and it left you questioning pretty much everything.

Depending on how you feel about the subjects, the following content may be an issue for you. Some language. The characters all drink like fish and more than one get sloshed. And there is some open discussion, not graphic, of cheating and sexual affairs between several characters.

Of the two books that I've read by Deb Richardson-Moore Murder, Forgotten is by far my favorite. Despite the, in my opinion, rather excessive alcohol consumption I enjoyed the book quite a bit. The psychological elements, the complete questioning of whether a main character might actually be the killer, was very very good. I also loved the generational aspects to the story with both mother and daughter trying to solve the mystery. Oh, and it's worth reading this book just for the exquisite setting, South Carolina's Sullivan's Island, alone.

(I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are entirely my own.)

In Murder, Forgotten, author Deb Richardson-Moore transports the reader to Sullivan's Island, South Carolina, and a short jump across the pond to Crail, Scotland, for an intriguing southern murder mystery story that will keep the reader guessing and turning the pages.

Julianna Burke is a best-selling murder mystery author, who has been experiencing a gradual memory loss that leaves her writing career in jeopardy. When Julianna's husband Connor is murdered in their home office while neither Julianna or assistant Margot Riley heard anything that occurred, the wheels are set in motion to try and figure out what really happened, and if Julianna's writing plot style and progressive memory loss had any part in it.

As Julianna struggles to make sense of her husband's murder and the progression of her memory loss, daughter Logan delves into the murder investigation, and the more information Logan discovers, the more danger, potential motives, and suspects are added to the list, and one of them is determined to stop Julianna and Logan before they reveal the truth of Connor's death at any cost.

Author Deb Richardson-Moore weaves a fast-paced and suspenseful tale written in the third person narrative that alternates between Julianna and Logan as they try to uncover the truth behind the death of Julianna's husband, Connor Burke.

I loved reading this intriguing murder mystery. The reader will be easily drawn into this richly descriptive plot that will keep them guessing as family secrets, a growing list of possible suspects, motives, and clues are uncovered. You can't help but feel for Julianna as she struggles with her memory loss, it is so devastating and heartbreaking. I loved how Logan steps in to investigate her step-father's murder, I was kept guessing as the person and reason behind the murder mystery was slowly revealed.

I would be remiss if I didn't mention how much I enjoyed the rich description of the eastern coast of Scotland, and the low country setting of Sullivan's Island, South Carolina. I have property in Calabash, North Carolina, and I have been fortunate enough to know that the beautiful low country locales are truly worth the visit.

Murder, Forgotten has enough drama, tension, action, dark secrets, intrigue, and unexpected twists and turns that will take the reader on one heck of a thrilling roller coaster ride.

Murder, Forgotten is an engrossing thriller set in South Carolina. Julianna is a hugely successful author of several crime thriller novels. When her husband is found murdered in her study, nobody know who killed him, especially Julianna who seems to be suffering with severe memory issues.
This novel is set within a close nit community where everyone becomes a suspect. It kept me guessing throughout, and is jam packed with interesting and believable characters. If a writer can make you feel strong emotions within their work, they are definitely doing something right and I deeply disliked some of the people within this book.
I will definitely be looking out for more novels from this author and can highly recommend this book.

Murder, Forgotten by Deb Richardson-Moore

Julianne Burke, bestselling mystery novelist, has.a Secret that those closest to her are hiding from the world. Julianna is losing her memory, and with it her powerful gift for storytelling. She is also desperate to find out what happened to her husband.

Excellent book. A great mystery novel with very deep characters and many suspects. I didn’t guess the right suspect until almost the end. I look forward to more of her books. I highly recommend this book.

What a well written and well paced mystery! First novel I've read from this author but not my last. I had chosen my suspect near the beginning but through all of the twists and turns doubted I was right, I added and subtracted suspects the entire time only to discover my first guess was, in fact, correct! I haven't had so much fun reading a mystery in years. This is such an original plot. I will be recommending this book to everyone... Or maybe not quite everyone. This will be a great holiday gift for a few mystery lovers on my list. They'll have to wait a couple of months to find out how great this book is. Read it, you'll be glad you did.

Was this review helpful?

Julianna Burke is a murder mystery writer who is experiencing memory issues, cleverly indicated with an odd feeling of distance in the scenes from Julianna’s point of view. As the title implies, Julianna’s memory issues are a key and tragic plot point: Julianna’s husband, Connor, was murdered recently, but Julianna doesn’t remember.

Logan, Julianna’s daughter, returns to the family home to help her mother cope with Connor’s death. The police don’t seem to getting anywhere in the murder investigation, but Logan finds some information that could help … even if she doesn’t like where that information is pointing.

One of the challenges of reading a mystery novel is always seeing if I can work out whodunit. With Murder, Forgotten I was on the right track in terms of who, but didn’t know why. That ended up being a little convoluted, perhaps because there were a lot of characters and relationships to keep track of. That’s also a key point in a good murder mystery. After all, there have to be several possible evildoers, and Murder, Forgotten had a strong cast of characters, many of whom had motive or opportunity.

There were some writing oddities which annoyed me a little, such as the creative dialogue tags (she thought peevishly), the slips into omniscient point of view (I’m not a fan), and the fact that one factoid was dropped in so often that it was obvious that it was going to be Very Important (and it was).

Otherwise, a solid mystery.

This book was truly unique and captured my interest right away. Julianna, a best selling mystery writer is slowly losing her memory. Her husband Connor is brutally murdered, and Julianna is determined to find out what happened to him and why, but trying to uncover the truth when fighting with her own mind proves to be difficult.

This book was a truly fantastic 'whodunnit' which really kept me guessing right until the end. I loved Julianna's character and really felt a connection towards her and wanted her to get the answers she so desperately needs.
The way the story is told has you second guessing everything. Is Julianna really losing her mind, or is she drifting off into a world in which she has created in her mind.

A fascinating, perfectly paced thriller. I loved this book!.
