Suicide Squeeze
Diamond. One name for a woman with one purpose. Or she was, until she finished her to-do list. Now she’s just a woman ready to be over with it all.
Hanna Lang is the kind of woman men write bad checks for. She has a problem. Her man, Dr. Damon Marten, disappeared in the middle of an ordinary day. The police aren’t concerned but Hanna knows better. A clandestine meeting leaves her with an address, a sealed envelope, and one last hope. An hour later, she rings a doorbell.
Before Diamond was a widow, she was CIA agent with skills illegal in a dozen countries. When her marker is called in, she has no choice but to listen. It’s just like fate throw her a curve ball, sending her the one problem she can’t walk away from. Hanna’s situation is virtually identical to her own with one Hanna’s man might still be alive.
Diamond reluctantly takes the case. She dives into the mystery, surfacing in the middle of 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.
Praise for the books by TG
“TG Wolff’s Detective De La Cruz is caught in the crosshairs of solving heinous crimes, defending himself against a wrongful lawsuit, helping an abusive drug dealer’s family, thwarting his mother’s matchmaking, and falling in love. Pit against those who subvert justice and twist the law to suit their own ends, Cruz stands true while suffering his own demons—everything a hero should be. Wolff’s unsentimental and precise writing draws readers. Add Exacting Justice to your ‘to be read’ pile.” —E. B. Davis, mystery author
“Working with an incarcerated population, I deal regularly with people who have made poor life decisions but who can be inherently funny, surprisingly talented, or overly concerned. I know that simple labels of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ don't work in the real world. In Exacting Justice , TG Wolff created characters just as messy, complicated, and dynamic as real life that keep you wanting to read page after page.” —Vincent Giammarco, Director of Behavioral Health Care
“TG Wolff’s novel is for crime-fiction fans who like it action-packed and hard-edged. Written with feisty panache, it introduces Diamond, one of the most aggressive, ill-tempered, and wholly irresistible heroines to ever swagger across the page.” —David Housewright, Edgar Award-winning author of Dead Man’s Mistress , for Widow’s Run

T.G. Wolff
20 books190 followersTG Wolff has never been able resist a good puzzle. With an engineer’s mind for logic and a lifelong love of mysteries, she crafts whodunnit stories that challenge readers to outsmart her detective. Her books are filled with quirky characters, red herrings, and—because she firmly believes solving (fictional) murders should be fun—a healthy dose of humor.
TG earned both her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in civil engineering, learning early to see every problem as a mystery and each solution as the answer the result of asking the right questions. That same curiosity drives her fiction, where nothing is ever accidental and every detail counts.
When she’s not plotting fictional crimes, TG is a mystery reader and reviewer, and the co-creator / co-host of the whodunnit mystery podcast Mysteries to Die For. A Cleveland, Ohio native, she now lives in northeast Indiana with her husband and two sons, where dogs and mysteries are always welcome.

Terrific
I’m an action and mystery fan. I enjoy the suspense and thriller books, though I’m not as passionate about them. What I really love is the characters and the relationships between them. I love the sass, banter, and humor that comes with a good character. It’s not easy to find a book that has all of these elements, but I feel like I have found the perfect series with The Diamond Mysteries.
The mystery in Suicide Squeeze was intriguing. It was easy to follow and didn’t have any plot holes. I will say, there were moments when I got a couple of the characters confused because of the spy aliases but overall I found that was because I was reading too fast or interrupted.
Summary: If you love action-packed hilarity Suicide Squeeze is a fun book that you’ll want to relax and enjoy with no interruptions… but I strongly suggest that you read Widow’s Run first.

Another fast-paced thrill ride with Diamond and the gang. Just as she's ready to give up on life, life let's her know it's not done with her yet. Not in the least. All my favorite characters returned for book 2, and some new and rather unsavory ones as well. This time the mystery takes them to the UK, where chaos abounds. Loved it, and can't wait to see where book 3 takes the cast!

Yes, I wrote it, but I still loved reading it. After being away from Diamond and her crew for the months of editing and publishing, Suicide Squeeze immediately grabbed my attention and kept it. I love it when I make myself laugh out loud.
