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. 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’s featured release is Silent Killer by Tracy Burnett and Ross Weiland

Silent Killer is a suspense thriller. Special Agent Gordon Stone with the Food and Drug Administration’s Office of Criminal Investigation is on loan to a terrorism joint task force led by the FBI. After weeks of being relegated to grunt tasks, he’s finally got his own case and it’s in his field of expertise—wholesale food. His target is Jummal Adeyami, vice president of a grocery chain who is exhibiting behavior odd enough to send up red flags on the terror watch. While Stone is ordered to shut the investigation down, he’s sure there’s more to the story. Is it enough to save him from insubordination charges? There’s only one way to find out.

Bottom line: Silent Killer is for you if you like intellectual thrillers where questions aren’t as simple as black and white.

Join us next week for Season 8 Anything but Murder. It’s the treat every Thanksgiving weekend needs – that hairdresser extraodinare Henri Beauchamp is back! Cyberbullying is the murderless crime in Toxic by Robert J. Binney

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.

I am TG Wolff and I’m here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you in the heart of a mystery. All stories are structured to challenge you to beat the detective to the solution. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes.

Our social media is alive and kicking. Check out Instagram @mysteriestodiefor (all spelled out) and on Facebook @m2d4podcast for the pulse on the shows happenings. And explore our website, M2D4Podcast.com for all our episodes and authors.

The rules for law and order create the boundaries for civil co-existence and, ideally, the backdrops for individuals, families, and companies to grow and thrive. Breaking these rules puts civil order at risk. And while murder is the Big Daddy of crimes, codified ordinances across municipal divisions, counties, states, and countries show the nearly endless ways there are to create mayhem. This season, we put our detective skills to the test. This is Season 8, Anything but Murder.

This is Episode 21, home burglary is the featured crime. This Karen and the Cul-De-Sac Caper by Kyra Jacobs

About home burglary

Let’s start with the difference between robbery and burglary. Robbery is stealing from a person using force or fear. It can occur anywhere and is classified as a violent crime. Burglary is unlawful entry of a structure—a home, a hotel, a bank, etc. There is no confrontation between the bad guy and a person. This is considered a property crime. In looking for examples, actors, athletes, and other rich and famous have become targets of organized rings. Some of the cases are burglary with the bad guys breaking in while the homes were empty. Other are robberies where the owners were at home, some with their children. Sadly, some victims were held at gun point or threatened with other violence while others hid or fled their homes. In February, 2025, the Justice Department unsealed indictments against 7 Chilean Nationals charging them with conspiracy to commit interstate transportation of stolen property associated with the burglarization of the homes of professional athletes around the county. We’ve included a link in the show notes to an episode of Inside the FBI Podcast, intercepting the South American Theft Group.

This is Episode 20, menacing is the featured crime. This is Audubon’s Ghost by Margaret S. Hamilton

Deliberation

Nick isn’t getting the crime free honeymoon Lizzie promised him. With our help, they can close the book on this bird-brained caper. A real Audubon painting was hidden away and someone is willing to menace to get it. Here are the suspects in the order that we met them

• Al McGuire, actor who claimed to be an Australian tourist
• Sam Broussard, professional thief and con artist
• Officer Landry, police officer who saved Ed and Carol
• Tony Robichaux, curator of the Audubon Museum at Oakley Plantation
• Dr. Nakamura, rightful owner of the Audubon watercolors

ABOUT Menacing as a crime

In general, menacing is where a person uses a threat or action to cause another person to be in fear of serious bodily damage or death. It can range from a misdemeanor to a felony depending on the severity. Definitions do vary somewhat by state. There aren’t “famous” cases of menacing because, alone, it is not considered a serious crime. Menacing does often end up being a component of other charges such as stalking and harassment. A few cases for you to gnaw on. In 2008, Christopher Szaz pleaded guilty to federal civil rights charges for threatening employees of the National Council of La Raza and the Council on American Islamic Relations. He sent emails threatening to bomb offices and kill employees, which met the legal definition of menacing.

ABOUT Margaret S. Hamilton

Margaret S. Hamilton is the author of forty short stories, many of them set in the fictional small town of Jericho, Ohio. She has also published stories set in the Dordogne region of southwest France, Cape Cod, New Orleans, and 1950’s Cincinnati.

Margaret’s debut traditional mystery, What the Artist left Behind, is on submission. It was a 2019 Daphne Mainstream Mystery Finalist. She is writing the next two books in her Jericho Mysteries series about amateur sleuth Lizzie Christopher and her husband Nick Cameron.

Margaret is a member of Sisters in Crime and Mystery Writers of America, and blogs monthly on the Writers Who Kill blog. She lives in suburban Cincinnati with her husband and two standard poodles, Jazz and Louie. She is an avid traveler, gardener, and photographer.

This is Episode 19, Body Snatching is the featured crime. This is Have You Seen This Body? by TG Wolff

About body snatching

Resurrection Men, aka Body Snatchers, practiced their illegal trade in the mid-to-late 1800s. This was the period when medical training was expanding and so was the need for cadavers for students to learn on. Body Snatchers stole bodies from fresh graves and so them to medical schools or instructors. The trade went by the wayside as states passed Anatomy Acts or Bone Bills that allowed medical schools to legally acquire unclaimed bodies and also allowed people to donate their bodies.

From congressional cemetery.org comes the story of Resurrection Man Dr. George Christian.

On the night of December 12th, 1873, police officers noticed a suspicious carriage sitting at Washington Circle, Washington DC. After midnight, an officer approached the woman sitting inside and she explained she was waiting for her husband who was conducting business. Later, they saw one man approach the buggy and place a spade inside. Then another man appeared and placed a muddy shovel inside before the three set off towards New Hampshire Avenue and Boundary Street. The officers pursued them, suspecting they must have stolen goods on board but instead found grave robbing tools. Officers investigated nearby Holmead Cemetery and found the body of Thomas Fletcher inside a large canvas bag near the fence. The night of Dr. Christian’s arrest, a diary was found inside the carriage along with the grave robbing tools, illustrating the extent of his resurrectionist business. Excerpts from this diary were published in the newspapers and later used at his trial.

Christian had arrangements with doctors at Washington Asylum and the Almshouses where patients often died penniless and sometimes without family for records of their dying. These were potential victims for him to later dig up at the city’s potter’s fields, where the impoverished were buried in unmarked graves. Notes in his diary describe various doctors going out resurrecting with him or sending janitors and hospital stewards out with him as assistants. One local doctor offered Christian and his partner $15 each per body.

In addition to supplying nearby medical schools with cadavers, Christian corresponded with doctors at schools in Virginia, Michigan, and Ohio. Their letters spoke of the best ways to pack bodies in whiskey barrels and prices per cadaver. One Michigan doctor wrote that he’d pay Christian $25 per body but then sell the bodies to the students for $40. ($25 in 1873 is worth $635.64 today.)

Today’s featured release is The Conductor by Eva Shaw

TG Wolff Review

The Conductor is an amateur sleuth mystery. It is 1948. Dr. Beatrix Patterson is a psychiatrist and occasional consultant to the Santa Barbara police. She is called in to investigate the death of railroad executive Grayson Welsh. Described as a bully with wondering hands, there is no shortage of people he crossed words with. Thought to be connected to the railroad union, Bea goes undercover as a conductor to suss out motives and suspects. She uncovers persons of interest in a commune reputed for social liberties, conflicting interests of other conductors, and Welsh’s own private life.

Bottom line: The Conductor is for you if you like historical mysteries set against a background of social change of post WWII.

The Conductor was released from Torchflame and is promoted by Partners In Crime Tours and is available from AMAZON LINK and other book retailers.

About Eva Shaw

Eva Shaw always loved a good mystery and when she took a break from her successful ghostwriting career, it was a mysterious idea than turned into The Seer, book 1 in the Beatrix Patterson series. She reads, breaths, watches and thrives on mysteries and is often shocked when the characters do a better job plotting the book than she could. When not writing, she’s kept on her toes thanks to her silly and rambunctious Welsh terrier companion, Coco Rose. She and Coco live near the beach in Carlsbad, California.

This is Episode 18, arson for hire is the featured crime. This is A Slow Burn by Chuck Brownman.

About Arson

Episode 16, First Reports are Rarely Right, was a different kind of arson story. In the episode, we talked the case of serial arsonist, Thomas Sweatt. Today, I thought we’d get a little more technical.

An article published back in June 1982 in Fire and Arson Investigator, Volume 32 Issue 4, classified arson motives based on a sample of 139 cases in New York City. The following comes directly from the article’s abstract and is rearranged to be easier to follow:

Types of arson motives identified are:

(1) pyromania (10.1 percent) The pyro firesetter usually sets the fire in an occupied multiple dwelling at night in a public portion of the building, usually on the floor and using a flammable liquid for one fire rather than multiple fires.

(2) revenge (52.9 percent) The revenge firesetter, who often threatens arson prior to the act, will focus on the residence or a building associated with the targeted victim. Flammable liquid is used to start one or multiple fires.

(3) vandalism (12.3 percent) The vandal arsonist targets occupied multiple dwellings as well as commercial buildings, schools, jails, churches, and abandoned buildings. Night is the favorite time and the first floor is preferred for starting the fire.

(4) insurance fraud (6.55 percent) Arson for insurance is obviously committed on insured property, and the fire is designed to provide complete devastation.

(5) welfare fraud (6.55 percent) Welfare fraud fires are usually set in the residence of the perpetrator after all valuable property has been removed, and the crime concealment arsonist is usually concealing a burglary, and existing paper at one spot on the floor is generally used.

(6) the psycho firesetter (8.7 percent) The psycho arsonist usually sets the fire in his own residence and customarily starts one small fire without the use of an accelerant.

(7) crime concealment (2.9 percent) Fires are set to destroy evidence of other crimes, such as theft or murder.

There are several caveats to be aware of. This article is 43 years old and it was based on a narrow data set – 138 cases specifically in NYC. I liked it for the simplicity in the way the results were presented. While I’m sure there are other more recent reports out there, I didn’t find one nearly as neat. So take this in large general terms
