This was such an interesting book, and I enjoyed it! I liked the story line and the pacing. It had a good lever of suspense, and the themes of loss, grief, trauma were all well written. I think the character development was great too

Thank you to NetGalley, to the author, and to the publisher for this complementary ARC in exchange for my honest review!!!

The story follows the boy who manages to escape from the traumatic environment of the children’s home. As he grows into adulthood, he becomes determined to track down and eliminate those responsible for the abuse he endured. In stark contrast, the girl remains trapped in her circumstances, raising questions about her fate and well-being.

The plot thickens as Officers Brady and Jones lead an investigation to uncover the truth behind the abuse. They face numerous challenges while piecing together clues that could lead them to justice. Amidst their professional struggles, Officer Jones finds some solace in her personal life; however, she begins to suspect that her new partner may be hiding a dark secret.

The novel explores themes of trauma, revenge, and the quest for justice while also addressing personal relationships affected by past horrors. It raises poignant questions about what happens to those left behind in such harrowing situations and how individuals cope with their pasts.

In summary, “Dig Two Graves” is not just a tale of crime but also an exploration of human resilience in the face of adversity.
