I found this book confusing to start with. so many characters. I have not read any of this author's books, maybe if I had at least the police personnel would have been familiar. The story was creepy people being buried alive. I did not find any of the characters very likeable.  DI Gina Harte  was facing her own demons as secrets from her own past history which she thought were known only to one person she trusted, had been leaked to the Press.

This is already the 7th book in the DI Gina Harte series, and I just can not get enough.  The book and story line are so gripping, you are flying through the pages! I can't wait for the next book, pretty please! 
Highly recommended.

thank you for the opportunity to read this latest book. i started this series at the beginning of lockdown and was so pleased to be awarded the latest one, and wow even though it is number seven in the series it is as gripping, tense and edgy as if it were the first i never get tired or bored of this series, bravo 10 out or 10

Ding ding ding! Another winner in the DI Gina Harte series. This is book 7 and I'm not tired of this series yet. The characters are so well-developed, as is the storyline. Once you start reading, you don't want to put it down. I hate when these books end as I always want more! I would LOVE to see this entire series made into a TV series!!!!

Thank you #netgalley and #bookouture for the eARC.

Another great read from Carla Kovach and this one has my greatest fear in it of being buried alive and especially one part where I thought oh no this can't be the end of the series so thankfully we will have a few more to come. I got this as an arc to review and the opinions expressed are entirely my own views and are completely unbiased.

Dressed in garish Halloween costumes, two teenage girls run through a patch of dense woodland towards the outskirts of town. But before they can reach the safety of the streets beyond, they make a shocking discovery.
I really enjoyed this book and was hooked on right from the first page. It was well written, the characters were nice and the story captivating. I truly recommend it.

Another gripping instalment in this well established series. The "complicated" relationship between Gina and Briggs and Gina's past continues as a sub plot throughout what is a complex case with plenty of unexpected twists.

Desperate to reach the party on time, two teenage girls dressed in garish Halloween costumes run through a patch of dense woodland towards the outskirts of town. But before they can reach the safety of the streets beyond, they make a shocking discovery.

Following a piece of old rope, the girls find a large mound of freshly laid earth, undisturbed in the darkness of the trees. Clawing at the ground beneath them, they find a shallow grave.

Once the police and forensic team arrive they discover that someone was buried alive. When another grave is found just days later, DI Gina Harte and her team realise that a serial killer is preying on their small town. But who is the killer watching now? And when will another grave be filled?

This is my first book in this series and I totally enjoyed it. I was hooked on right from the first page.

It was well written with a very captivating plot. All the characters were good especially DI Gina who goes all out to catch the killer. It had all the twists and thrills right till the end. I had a hard time guessing who was the killer and even then I couldn't get it right. 

Overall, a brilliant book filled with twists and an obsession for revenge. Highly Recommended!

Thank You to NetGalley and Bookouture for this ARC!

This is a creepy romantic suspense that  contains a ghost story, Halloween, being buried a,ive, revenge and a large host of characters. There are lots of twists and turns and it is hard to figure out who is to blame

When two teenagers find a shallow grave, it is discovered that someone was buried alive.  When another victim is  found just days later, DI Gina Harte and her team realise they are looking for a serial killer.  The team race against time to find the killer and to discover any further buried victims...

This was the first in the DI Gina Harte series I've read and I really enjoyed it.  A creepy, thrilling and captivating tale with a fantastic plot and shocking ending.  The characters were all great and I look forward to reading more of the series to get to know Gina and her team more.   

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy of the book in return for my honest feedback.

This is the first book I have read by Carla Kovach and I will definitely be seeking out the others! I couldn’t put this down as was desperate to find out who the killer was! As someone who dislikes Halloween this certainly played on my fears

Loved this creepy crazy book!! So many dark twists and turns!  I could not put it down.  Intricately woven tale that is full of secrets, revenge and obsession.  I highly recommend this book!

Their Silent Graves by Carla Kovach – 5 Stars
Publisher: Bookouture 
ISBN: 9781838888657 

I was browsing the list of books available from NetGalley and the colorful cover of Their Silent Graves caught my attention. Amazon flagged it in the categories of police procedural and serial killer, but it is so much more than an ordinary offering in those groups. The plot is clever, complex and unique. It reminds one that our actions have lasting effects on others. The pace is steady. I didn’t rush through or skim any part. I enjoyed each word as I tried to figure out who the killer was and how events would come together at the conclusion. I was not disappointed. The ending was a surprise and was tragically believable. I will definitely read other books by Carla Kovach.

I'm always excited with the prospect of a new Carla Kovach book , and this certainly proved to be worth waiting for . I love the Gina Harte series , she is a strong female lead really well written as is the relationships she has with her team . Two young girls on the way to a Halloween party find a shallow grave , the grisly discovery a coffin where the victim was certainly buried alive , during the investigation the perpetrator involves Gina by sending her letters both directly and to the press . There is a lot of speculation about Gina's past relationship with her husband which makes her very uncomfortable , although she is still determined to catch this killer even if it puts her in the crosshairs . As usual plenty of suspects that keep you guessing and some tense moments . Another brilliant outing for our heroine . 5 stars

I was glued to my Kindle until I finished it. 
Carla Kovach is best known for her work in crime thrillers in Jane Casey, Cara Hunter's style and here she came with Their Silent Graves. Although the title gives us a rough Idea about the plot of the story. We can see that this time the killer is playing with graves. 
Have you ever seen a grave? Have you ever felt that someone is watching you? If Yes then how would you feel if you came to know that it was a serial killer who was watching you? 
The story started with 24 years ago, normal people living normal lives and then story moved by 12 years ago which sounds a large gap. Two girls witnessed something shocking, I e a grave and started running but the killer was watching them in the shadows. After a few days a new grave is found. And it made clear to the police that a serial killer is lurking out there waiting for his or her next victim. 
There is nothing much to talk about as this is a cat and mouse thriller. A game of killer and police. Will the police catch the killer or will there be any more graves? To know you've to read this twisty crime thriller.
I loved Fredy the most in the story and as always I loved the antagonist. 
Narration of the story is buttery smooth. 
Thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for giving me an advance copy of this twisted crime thriller.
