Debra Webb

Debra Webb (born 1958) is a USA Today bestselling American author of suspense novels.

Biography Debra Webb grew up on a farm outside Scottsboro, Alabama. Although her family was not wealthy, Webb cites her parents' hard work as teaching her "that I could be anything if I wanted it badly enough and was willing to work hard enough." Webb had always created stories in her head, and when she turned nine she began to write them down. After Webb earned a degree in Business Administration, her husband was stationed in Berlin, Germany. Webb worked as a secretary in the commanding general's office. She and her family returned to the United States in 1985, and Webb accepted a position as an executive secretary at NASA.

Her first Harlequin Intrigue concerned a private investigation agency run by Victoria Colby. Since that book, Webb has moved into the mainstream suspense genre and has written over one hundred sixty novels.
