Andrew Diamond

All the other novels by author Diamond have also been labeled as feverishly readable and fully entertaining. Wake Up, Wanda Wiley is filled with comedy and pokes fun at the tropes of the thiller and romance genres. Diamond says that the authors who have inspired him and influenced his work include James M. Cain, Dorothy B. Hughes, Jim Thompson, Patricia Highsmith, Elliot Chaze, Charles Williams, and Elmore Leonard. Besides writing mind-blowing novels, Diamond is also credited for creating the chief protagonist Russell Fitzpatrick. He has depicted Russell as a software engineer like him. Also, the observations and attitudes of Russell Fitzpatrick also come from Diamond’s experience as a software developer.
