Description
Susan Moore--sharp, thoughtful, deep, and wise--is spiraling into crisis. Her unfaithful husband is hiding a lot more than his affair with a reckless young woman. Mark Ready, the wayward soul who Susan by chance calls on for help, turns out to be the right person at the right time, despite all appearances. Through a series of awkward and sometimes hilarious missteps, he manages to bring everyone's secrets into the open, igniting at last the explosion of events that will change all of their lives for good.
Suspenseful and richly plotted, with vividly-drawn characters, Warren Lane is by turns funny and moving, offering a compelling portrait of ordinary people blundering their way through difficult times.

Reviews
In Diamond's debut, a random series of events leads to five adrift people tangled up in each other's lives, with sometimes-disastrous consequences... When a mix-up leads Susan to accidentally hire Mark to investigate her husband instead of Warren, events begin a downward spiral... These encounters with pain, hope, and loss make the book engaging. Almost every reader will relate in some way to the protagonists' sense of being adrift and unsure of where to go. --Kirkus Reviews WARREN LANE is a charming comedy of errors, with a good heart and a light touch... The plot has enough unexpected surprises to keep things interesting until the very last page, upending all the characters' lives with mischievous delight not unmixed with sympathy. -- IndieReader (4.5 stars) Warren Lane is a quirky, intriguing and wholly original read. It's beautifully written and expertly plotted, and I had a grand time reading it. Warren Lane is most highly recommended. -- Jack Magnus for Readers' Favorite (5 stars)
