TT19: Suicide Squeeze (Diamond #2)

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For and this Toe Tag.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is normally a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you at the heart of mystery, murder, and mayhem. Today is a bonus episode we call a Toe Tag. It is the first chapter from a fresh release in the mystery, crime, and thriller genre.Today we’re continuing our early celebration of the July 10th release of Psycho Therapy, the last in my Diamond Trilogy with this Toe Tag of the second story Suicide Squeeze. The Suicide Squeeze was released from Down & Out Books in 2021 and is available from AMAZON LINK and other book retailers.TG Wolff ReviewWidow’s Run is a Mystery. A university chemistry professor went out for lunch and didn’t come back. The cops think he’s skipped town, but his fiancée knows better. Desperate for answers, the fiancée, Hanna Lang, agrees to a clandestine meeting. The stranger with a reputation gives her a cryptic letter and an address. An hour later, she rings the doorbell.Diamond is a former CIA agent turned widow whose future is sealed. In her darkest hour, the curve fate pitches is a blonde with a situation virtually identical to her own with one exception: Hanna’s man might still be alive. Putting her plans on hold, Diamond dives into the mystery, surfacing in a scavenger hunt for a secret known as Poe’s Raven. It takes Diamond’s flair for the impossible to capture this bird, only to discover what’s in her hand has the potential to take terrorism to a chilling new level. And fate isn’t done with Diamond, forcing her to put it all on the line or risk setting the caged bird free.Bottom line: Suicide Squeeze is for you if you like fast-paced mysteries, dynamic characters, and story meant to be read just for the fun of it Strengths of the story. To give you an unbiased review, I’m using posted reviews…One from Amazon, “…Like the first book, SUICIDE SQUEEZE is a fast-paced, humorous thrill ride from beginning to end that spans multiple continents. Even better? It brings back all our favorite characters from book one. Loved it, and can't wait to see what new adventures await Diamond in book 3!.” This story carries on with the style from the first book, keying on pacing and characters. It’s a solid mystery, but simple, it had to be because everything around it was so complex. Each chapter is it’s own story and also moves the overall story along. It made it a blast to write and it what give the pacing it’s feel.Where the story fell short of ideal: Well, there aren’t any negative reviews. Honestly, there’s only one review on Amazon and Goodreads…so that must mean everyone loves it!So take six hours out of your reality to read Suicide Squeeze, the second Diamond Adventure. Review it, help me get up to like 20 reviews. It would mean a lot. Then you’ll be ready to finish the series with Psycho Therapy, releasing July 10th. Join us next week for the last episode of Season 6: Detective Connolly Gets Wet N Wild. In the tradition of Inspector Clousseau and Maxwell Smart, Detective Connolly…is something you have to experience for yourself. Hint: It’s a Jack story.
