Dig Two Graves: A Gripping Crime Thriller (Solomon Gray Book 1) by Keith Dixon – Review by Maura Harper

Dig Two Graves (Detective Solomon Gray #1)Dig Two Graves by Keith Nixon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

DIG TWO GRAVES is a suspense/thriller which isn’t necessarily my go to trope but I was in need of a change so I picked it up.

The first story I’ve read by the author, this is a very detailed story about a very unlikable guy. It’s strange because I’ve read other series similar to this and have always found redeeming qualities in the characters. The MC never warmed up for me.

This is a dark story that has twists and turns along the way and it definitely keeps the reader on its toes. There are several elements of the story that tapped into my base fears (losing child in a crowd, for instance) and made me feel a little “itchy” at times.

While I didn’t care for Sol, I did enjoy the story and found that it is a good set up for stories to come.

3 stars

I really wanted to love this book, it just missed that mark for me. Between the language I had to try and make sense of but also the overly done descriptions, it just drug it all down for me. It took a bit to get into as it was a different style of writing, but after about 100 pages, I had to keep going to see what happened next.

We do learn a couple very valuable things in this book, but the main question I had wasn’t answered/solved, so I may read the next book to see if my answer is hidden there.
