A new series by Helen, featuring superintendent Hedley Sharpe. Within two days, two men are discovered in separate cellars with a bullit to the head. Does it have something that happened a year ago when one of their suspects did a runner? Sharpe and his team have suspects piling up, but which one of them is telling the truth. Fast paced with a couple of twists to keep things interesting. Good plot with some good characters. Overall an ok read2024 netgalley5 s Leeanne 🥀The Graveyard Reader🥀297 131

This is a British crime thriller by an author unknown to me. Two bodies have been found in two different cellars, within a couple of days of each other, both with bullets to the head. Detective Hedley Sharpe and his partner Stuart, thinks it may be linked to a diamond robbery which happened a year ago. They have enough suspects, but who could it be?

The pace was very nice with this book, and it had a good storyline. Though I can’t say that it had me eagerly turning the pages. I prefer a bit more meat on my bones, with a lot more twists and turns, but overall, it was a good read.

Thanks to NetGalley for providing me with this free ARC, of which I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Now here's an author who always spins a gripping tale!

Detective Superintendent Hedley Sharpe finds himself with not one, but two bodies; one of them is at least a year old, found in a cellar. The other, in the cellar next door but this one is very recently dead. All the usual questions need to be answered, but this isn't a straightforward case. A young woman, Chloe Todd, recently found her baby's pram empty in her garden and the police were called by a neighbour. Now there seems to be some sort of connections between that young woman and the bodies lying in the mortuary . . .

This is the first in a new crime series from the pen of a very favourite author. I'm always astonished at how she manages to create so many different crime series without getting them confused! As always, this is a mesmerising story with many twists and turns but the heart of it is never lost and I rather d Hedley Sharpe. Another terrific creation from Helen H. Durrant - and one I'm delighted to both recommend and give all five glowing stars! *****3 s1 comment Shauntelle (myglamorousreads)209 20

A new crime procedural featuring Detective Hedley Sharpe. I did enjoy the fast pace at which this book moved. I wasn't sure if I could believe Chloe or not. At times, she appeared as a victim, and other times she seemed to be the antagonist.

I enjoyed the fast pace of the story, and the backstory provided on Chloe. That helped us get to know her better. I did find that there was a lack of backstory provided on her husband, Simon. I would've d to know more about what caused him to lead the life he did. I didn't find myself eagerly turning the pages, but i was interested enough to want to know what was going to happen at the end.

There weren't many twists and turns, but the plot held my interest. I'm sure that was due to the fast pace of the story. I'm not sure why, but I found myself feeling bad for Chloe by the end of the book. I have read a LOT of crime thrillers lately, and this one missed the mark for me. I was not a fan of Hedley and his tone or tactics. The dialogue between him and his partner read juvenile to me. The ending provided the perfect segue for book 2 in the series.

Thank you to NetGalley and Joffe Books for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.e-book netgalley2 s June351 5

I thoroughly enjoyed this book 1 of the DS Hedley Sharpe Mysteries.
This captured me from the very start and kept my interest right to the final twist ending.
It's a gripping, well written plot and storyline with strong characters and plenty of twists.
It does keep you guessing as you read, and I did have an inkling as to who but not the why or how or who was telling the truth.
I look forward to the next book in the series.
My thanks to Joffe books for the advanced copy. This is my honest and unbiased review.1 Siobhan185 23

This is a solid police procedural by Helen Durrant. I really the main character Hedley and can't wait to see how this series develops. ????1 Krystal1,166 32

For the first novel in a brand new series, this one really missed the mark for me (and I am a big fan of this author and most of her other books). Don't get me wrong, the premise was a solid one, it was the characters that I felt were sorely lacking.

First we have Hedley, an overweight DS who trusts his gut and comes across as brash to those around him (including his own work colleagues). He also keeps a bottle of whiskey in his desk drawer and has been known on occasion to indulge in a "little splash" in his coffee now and then; in the middle of the workday.

By contrast, his partner Stuart is the complete opposite. This one comes across as very naive and at times, downright gullible. We not only see him repeatedly duped by other characters, but he even tries to admonish Hedley on more than one occasion, either for his "treatment" of potential victims, or for continuing to investigate even though "everything is cut and dry."

Considering these two will, I assume, be the leading characters in future novels I am hoping there is some deeper character development to come because right now, I find very little to recommend either of them. The fact that Hedley has a tragic background (his wife was murdered) is something that I strongly feel needs to be explored in the future. Even if his gut instinct was right, and the person responsible for her murder is now dead, I still want to know what exactly led up to her murder since it wasn't mentioned in this story. I would also to see Hedley in the immediate aftermath of this loss as maybe that would better explain some of his behaviors now.

Now that I've discussed our two prominent leads and what I perceive as their shortcomings, let me talk about the other characters featured in this novel. The major villains just either didn't seem villains or were so over the top that you had to roll your eyes. Let's begin with Rawlins, Simon and Murray. All three are supposed to be "major players" in the criminal syndicate, yet (unless you count Simon bullying his wife) we never see them actually doing anything that would earn them that sort of heavy reputation. And for all that Murray is supposed to be a crime lord, his solicitor sure gives up pretty fast.

And then there are the women of this novel. Selina comes across by far as being the most blood-thirsty of the bunch, while Chloe comes across as just... off .... throughout the entire book. We know she's suffered a loss. We know her home life is not as she presents it. But there is still something missing about her character that makes me even want to sympathize with her, much less root for her. We know from the jump she's hiding something, we just don't know what that something is. And don't get me started on Brenda, who I am sure was meant to mean well, but just came across as one of those nosy neighbors that no one wants to deal with.

All of that said, it is because I enjoy this author more often than not, I will be giving book number two in this series a shot before I decide whether or not to continue on with it or wait for her to come up with something new.

DISCLAIMER: I received a complimentary copy of this novel from the publisher. This has not affected my review in any way. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this that review are 100% my own.1 Alyson Read942 45

We first meet Det Supt Hedley Sharpe and his DI, Stuart Vasey from the Major Crime Division in Ardwick, Manchester, at court where the defendant Dean Rawlins, facing a double murder charge, has done a runner. He’s also believed to be involved in a 2 million pound diamond theft and Hedley himself believes Rawlins was behind the death of his wife Emily. Now a year on, Rawlins’ body is discovered in the cellar of one of his own properties, drugged and shot about a year since. Unfortunately a very fresh corpse is also discovered next door. When a baby is reported missing at Rawlins’ former home, Hedley and Stuart take an immediate interest but soon discover the mother, Chloe Todd, has never got over the still birth of the baby and is confused. The detectives have very different views of the woman, whose husband Simon worked with Rawlins. Hedley thinks she is a clever little liar but Stuart believes she’s an innocent victim of a coercive and very strange marriage. Throw into the mix Rawlins’ vicious ex-wife Selina, the woman who bullied Chloe at school and who is determined to get her hands on both the house and the diamonds, and we have the baffling start to a great new series. Just what is the clearly manipulative Chloe plotting and what secrets from the past is she desperate to hide? What will happen when the very unlikable Chloe goes head-to-head with a great, if somewhat cliched, lead detective? And where does their prime suspect fit into all of this?
Hedley and Stuart remind me very much of a latter-day Dalziel and Pascoe, the older gruff no-nonsense senior detective with a softer sided junior sidekick, and the pair work well together, despite having conflicting views on the case. The first part of the story is quite confusing as the reader sees very different sides to Chloe’s character and it’s hard to work out exactly what is going on. However the suspense really racks up as the investigation unfolds in a story featuring a great team of detectives full of twists and surprises. It’s well written and highly engrossing, and held my attention throughout as the pages flew past. I’m looking forward to more as the series develops.

I would to thank Netgalley and Joffe Books for an advance copy of Dig Two Graves, the first novel to feature Detective Superintendent Hedley Sharpe of Greater Manchester Police.

Chloe Todd’s baby goes missing so a neighbour calls the police. This attracts Hedley’s attention, due to the address, but he doesn’t have much time to devote to what turned out to be a false alarm as he is investigating a skeleton with a gunshot wound. Then another dead body is found close to the first one. His attention turns back to Chloe when he finds links between her and the skeleton.

I enjoyed Dig Two Graves, which has an interesting plot, full of twists and turns. It is told as much from Chloe’s point of view as Hedley’s and that, I think, was a bit of a mistake as it telegraphs too much of the plot when put together with Hedley’s conjectures.

I think Hedley will become a great protagonist as the series progresses. He’s a bit of a cliché, older, overweight and short tempered with an extremely poor diet (who wants to live forever when they’re enjoying the present?), but he’s also extremely clear sighted and easily able to wade his way through all the lies and stories he is told. I his no nonsense approach.

Chloe Todd is a different kettle of fish. She is obviously lying and plotting so the only question is what and why. She’s very manipulative and extremely unable, so who cares what she’s up to, but the reader doesn’t have a choice, spending fifty percent of the novel with her.

The novel is a bit of a dual with Hedley convinced Chloe is scheming and lying to him and she doing her best to convince him that she is a victim with an uncaring husband. It is interesting to watch them duke it out and gradually find out her plans, although, personally, I would have preferred more of the procedural and less of the psychological as I don’t think the latter worked too well. There wasn???t enough real emotion or narcissism in it to thrill or even connect with the reader.

Dig Two Graves is a mixed bag with both good and not so good points. 3.5* Chantelle23 1 follower

This is the first book in a brand new series featuring Superintendent Hedley Sharpe. I have read most of this authors books who manages to write so many successful series all of which I enjoy. This looks it will be no different as it was a quick enjoyable read with some interesting new characters. I enjoyed the first half of the book more and thought that it failed to hold my interest throughout. I still enjoyed it and would rate it at 3.5 stars rounded up to 4.

Chloe Todd believes her baby daughter is sleeping peacefully in her pram in the back garden until she moves her blanket to check on her. Chloe’s neighbour calls the police but it appears all is not as it appears. The following day Superintendent Hedley Sharpe is called to a murder scene in the city centre where a body is discovered in a cellar beneath an empty shop. A single shot to the head to the victim who has been dead at least a year.

A day later a second body is found in the cellar next door. Once again a single bullet wound in the head, but this time the victim was killed recently. Headley Sharpe suspects the crimes are linked and it is not long before he discovers a connection to Chloe Todd who was spoken to a few days ago. As Hedley investigates he uncovers a series of dark secrets that make this case a lot more extraordinary.

Hedley Sharpe Mysteries, Book 1

Day 1. Chloe Todd believes her baby daughter is sleeping peacefully in her pram in the back garden. She lifts away the blanket to check on her - and gasps in shock. Chloe's neighbour calls the police. But all as not as it seems.

Day 2. Superintendent Hedley Sharpe is called to a murder scene in the city centre. A body is discovered in a cellar beneath an empty shop. A single shot to the head. The victim had been dead at least a year.

Day 3. A second body is found in the cellar next door. Again, a single bullet wound in the head. But this time the body is fresh.

This is the first book in a brand-new series that features Superintendent Hedley Sharpe. Two men have been found within two days of each other, their bodies discovered in separate cellars, each had a bullet to the head. The first body had been dead for a year, the second was fresh. The characters are a mixed bunch of able and unable, but they have all been well-developed. There are enough twists and red herrings to keep us guessing. I'm looking forward to reading the second book in this series.

Two bodies are found in neighboring cellars within days of each other, both shot to death. Could they be tied to an unsolved diamond robbery that happened a year earlier? Detective Superintendent Hedley Sharpe teams up with his partner, DI Stuart Vasey, to try to uncover the truth.

This one just wasn’t for me. There was a lot of potential there for the characters but they didn’t feel fully fleshed out enough to get invested and root for the good guys or to buy into the villains and how dangerous and scary they were supposed to be. The story also felt almost superficial. We’re told most of the facts, but aren’t shown much of the investigation. It almost felt the outline of a good story that just needed more details to develop it.

On a more positive note, it was a good premise and there were a lot of twists. I did want to know what happened to the two people who were found dead. I wanted to find out what the twists were, where the diamonds were, and what Chloe’s role was in the story. As the first book in the series there was the start of a decent foundation there. Hopefully, the author can build on that in the next books in the series.

This was a really good read. Great story and plot. A great start to a new series. I did Stuart. Hedley I didn't so much. I did sort of guessed what happened I was half right and half wrong.

A dead body with a bullet in the the head, unidentifiable as it hasn't been found for a year. A fresh corpse in the adjacent room. Is one of them a missing gangster who disappeared after a diamond heist?
Dig Two Graves is the first book in a new series of police procedural/crime thrillers featuring Detective Superintendent Hedley Sharpe.
Chloe is unhappily married to a bully with dealings with Dean Rawlins and together the men stole diamonds. She is devastated after the stillbirth of her daughter and now she has been uprooted to a new house. She is also being threatened by Dean's ex. How much more can she take?
Hedley Sharpe is a great new detective. He is overweight, middle aged, sarcastic, cynical. There is pain in his past due to the murder of his wife. He is tenacious and is determined to bring gangster Dean Rawlins to justice although he won't be too disappointed if someone else disposes of him first.
Hedley barely seems to appear in the first part of the book but, as more bodies are discovered, the police investigation becomes more prominent. The pace of the plot races along and the writing style is quite dialogue driven.
Dig Two Graves is an enjoyable start to a new series and I look forward to catching up with Hedley soon. Misfits farm1,875 81



A body is found having been shot, however the person has been dead a good long while. What makes it interesting is that he is found to be a known felon and those around him are just as dangerous. Hedley wants to find who did this as this could lead to a whole lot more. Chloe hates her controlling husband however maybe she knows more than she lets on? When her baby disappears her new neighbour calls it in and Hedley begins to join up the dots. Chloe’s husband is one of the known associates of the dead man. Could he have killed him, what was going on and why?

I love Helen’s books. There’s just something magical about them. A great cast of characters and Hedley is already growing on me, I'm just hoping with his health issues he can last the course. He’s a down to earth character who calls a spade a shovel and gets on with things, rank be damned! A gripping story with lots of twists and one I thoroughly enjoyed. A clever, excellent, engrossing police procedural. Can’t wait for the next one.

This is the first book in a brilliant new series by the bestselling Helen H Durrant.

It is a brilliant story that grabs the reader at the very beginning and doesn't let go all the way to the end. There are numerous red herrings along the way. A victim that has Hedley and his partner, Stuart at logger heads. Stuart thinks Chloe is a victim of abuse by a controlling husband Hedley is not convinced she is a victim of any sort. Who is right?

When a body in a cellar is eventually identified it soon becomes clear that Hedley and his team have a tangled web of lies, deceit, jealousy and revenge to sort through. Will they get to the truth?

It was interesting to meet new characters I didn't take to Hedley at first but he grew on me and I think he and Stuart make an effective combination. All the characters are very realistic and fit the plot perfectly.

As with all Helen's books this is an adrenaline pumping read that I absolutely loved. A very cleverly thought out plot with interesting characters and enough twists and turns to keep my attention. Very much looking forward to the next in this series. Kathleen885 23

When Chloe Todd discovers her three month old baby is missing from her carriage, she runs screaming from the house and her neighbor calls the police. Her husband Simon, a controlling bully, says there is no baby, the baby had died and Chloe, shocked by the death was on medication. Case closed, perhaps? Then a body is found in a cellar, lying there since he was killed a year earlier. A day later, the body of a homeless man was found in that same cellar. How are these three cases related?

DS Hedley Sharpe and DI Stuart Vasey realize that these crimes may be linked to a major diamond theft a year earlier. After another killing, Sharpe is sure that he knows who the murderer(s) are but can’t yet prove it. Nothing is as it seems is this complicated criminal enterprise.

Helen Durrant is a master of the police procedural. DIG TWO GRAVES is the first in a new series featuring DS Hedley Sharpe. He’s an anti-hero with a stubborn attitude, a foul mouth, and an unhealthy appetite paired with an unhealthy body. I cant wait to see what comes next! 5 stars.

Simon and Chloe have just moved into a new home. Simon leaves for work leaving strict orders not to unpack anything without his permission. Chloe finds her backbone and opens a box that has baby clothes in it from the baby she lost after being stillborn. She stakes the pram out to the back and lifts the blanket and starts screaming her baby is missing. The police are called to investigate.

Hedley Sharpe is called to a murder scene. A body is found with a single shot to the head. They believe the victim has been dead for about a year.

A second body is found with a single bullet wound to the head, but it appears to be more recent.

Hedley Sharpe believes the two bodies are connected but can't figure out how Chloe is involved.

This was a fast-moving story. I have always enjoyed books by Helen H Durrant, but this one leaves me a little cold. Hedley isn't as interesting as some of the other characters in other series.

Thank you NetGalley and Joffe Books for the eARC in return for my honest review.

Helen Durrant launches a new detective superintendent, Hedley Sharpe, in this book. A notorious gangster and his lawyer go missing right before he's due in court. A year later a couple, Chloe and Simon, move into his abandoned home. Chloe is trying to recover from the death of their child and Simon is trying to protect her from herself. Or is he? Meanwhile remains have been found in the basement of a Manchester shop. The victim suffered a gun shot wound to the head. A search of the adjacent cellar reveals a second body. Detective Superintedent Sharpe is called into the case. All roads appear to lead to Simon and Chloe.

Helen Durrant's writing is excellent. The plot well thought out with enough twists and turns to keep the reader engaged. Sadly I just didn't any of the characters in this book, including Hedley Sharpe. For that reason I won't be reading any further of the series and am only giving it 3 out of 5 stars. Maggie1,778 59

Detectives Hedley Sharpe and Stuart Vasey are furious when Rawlings doesn't appear in court accused of a large diamond robbery. Nearly a year later they are called out to investigate two bodies found in wasteland- one of which could well be the elusive Rawlings.
A young mother finds her baby's pram empty her screams alert the neighbours who call the police. Chloe & Simon have only just moved into the house. Brenda, the neighbour tries to calm Chloe. When Hedley and Stuart arrive they find out that the baby dies at birth but they also discover that Simon Todd was an associate of Rawlins- this was his house. Sharpe is convinced Chloe is not the innocent the tries to project. They might be able to solve the diamond robbery as well as the murders.

The characters were mainly disable, particularly Hedley (I know he had a tragedy to cope with but..) He epitomised all the bad news going around about the police. Thanks to Netgalley & the publisher for letting me read & review this book. This is the start of a new series. I won't be staying for the next I'm afraid. Sharon Valler412 13

So delighted to be able to catch this new crime series at the start, and Superintendent Hedley Sharpe is a great character who I look forward to getting to know more about

A body found in a cellar, which has been there for a year, then the following day, another victim. Alongside this, a young, grieving mother is trapped in a controlling marriage and the police are on the hunt for some stolen diamonds.

I enjoyed the balance between the plot for this particular book and getting to know Superintendent Hedley Sharpe personally, with hooks being dropped in about his circumstances, hopefully to be further explored in the forthcoming books in this series.

With the book set over a very short period of time, the pace was fast and punchy, the writing was immersive and the curve balls came out of nowhere, literally taking my breath away!

5 ?? Thanks to Netgalley, Helen H. Durrant and Joffe for an ARC in return for an honest review.

Dig Two Graves is a thriller centred mainly around Chloe and her husband Simon and some murders being investigated by the local police.

At times the characters were almost caricatures rather than real people. They would presume to know everything about someone 2 minutes after meeting them. Hedley Sharpe hardly seemed to stand out despite apparently being the feature of this new crime series. The pacing was slow and didn’t have me rushing to turn the pages.

Thankfully the book is fairly short as I don’t to DNF. It sounds other books from this author are better than this one so I may try some of them.

When several crimes are discovered within a few days, Supertendent Hedley Sharpe is assigned to the investigations. As he begins to put clues together, he will discover that all 3 crimes are connected to a previous robbery that has yet to be solved.

DIG TWO GRAVES is the first book in the new Hedley Sharpe series. Helen Durrant is a prolific author of six other series, all of them murder/thrillers that have loyal fan clubs. This is the first book of hers I have read. It's an excellent start as the characters and their community are developed quickly while their back story provides enough clues to carry over arcing stories as well as providing so many possibilities for the next few books. It's going to be enteresting to see where Superintendent Sharpe turns up next. Jan5,329 75

DS Hedley Sharpe is a long-serving detective working for Manchester’s Major Crime Division and is nearing retirement age but is still messed up since his wife's unsolved murder. He's jaded, aging, perennially grumpy, and pessimistic. His partner, Stuart, is sympathetic to those on the other side of the investigation but I can't believe how well he tolerates His Negativeness. The case is fascinating, and the investigation is relentless with its twists and sidetracks. All characters are well portrayed, but I can't say that I care for the main characters. Still, I'm glad that I read it.

This Author Never Disappoints Me!

Detective Hedley Sharpe has been looking for criminal Rawlins ever since he disappeared as he was due in court, then his body turns up in a disused building, he had been drugged and shot, but the diamonds he is believed to have stolen are still missing. As the death toll rises, Hedley and his team always seem to be one step behind but he is not the kind of man who takes the easy option, and there is one suspect in particular he has his sights set on even though his DI Stuart Vasey is completely convinced the suspect is innocent. Another great book by this author who never disappoints me. Vanessa2,284 19

Yes!!! A new series written by an excellent author!!
