Eva was a childhood friend and wife of Richard Moore, and the mother of Rachel Moore. She is also a childhood friend of Vivian Kudo.
It is stated that Eva and Richard have known each other since elementary school, but they mostly argued. Their fellow classmates were quite amused at their fierce bickering during a home economics class over the choice of which sauce should be put on an omelet (Eva favoring the traditional Western seasonings while Richard insisted on Japanese soy sauce). Despite their adamant disagreement, they ended up eating in exactly the same manner.
Ten years[2] prior to the series, she had been taken hostage by a man whom Richard, who was at that time a police officer, had arrested at the police station. The man had escaped the questioning room, grabbed her and held her at gunpoint. Being an expert marksman, Richard shot at her so that the bullet would only graze her leg. Due to this, she fell out of the way, allowing them to take the man back into custody. Despite this, Richard's superiors believed he had been reckless and didn't care about her safety. He was thus forced to leave the police force.
Rachel originally thought that her mother left him since he had shot her, but Eva later reveals that she had known all along why he had shot her and was proud of him for saving her life. Apparently the real reason that she left him was because Richard criticized her cooking, which was quite terrible to begin with. However, she still shows affection for Richard, and she would return to him if only he would stop his perverted attitude when he is around other attractive women.[citation needed]
It was also revealed that she once competed with Vivian Kudo in a pageant that had taken place in Teitan High.[3] Apparently, both of them won in a draw,[4] due to Richard's ticket not being placed in. He voted for Eva because, being poor at English as a teenager, he thought "Miss Teitan High" stood for "Mistake" and stated that he would have voted for Vivian.[5]
Eva is seen driving a classic Mini Cooper (an LHD one, which is odd for Japan, an RHD county, especially since most Minis built were RHD, even those sold in LHD countries like the United States). She refers to it as her car but it is in fact a rental.
Aside from helping Conan solve cases, the anime has adapted her into a few original courtroom battle episodes in which her profession is put into motion. In each battle, her rival is top public prosecutor named Reiko Kujo (九条 玲子 Kujo Reiko ), whose nickname was "Madonna of the prosecutors".[6]
She has a secretary named Midori Kuriyama (栗山 綠 Kuriyama Midori ).
