Synopsis
What Lies Buried…doesn’t stay buried.
This second book of the DiMasi Family Trilogy recounts how the trauma and abuse Gavin suffered all during his childhood (in the first book, ‘Secrets In The Mirror’) at the hands of his Mob-affiliated father and Narcissistic twin resulted in Gavin’s debilitating Complex PTSD, which puts himself, his wife Katie, and child, in danger of retribution from the Mob. In this dual POV story, Gavin attempts to bury his childhood trauma and the vestiges of his father’s Mob connections, while Katie rediscovers the artistic talent she buried when she became caregiver to her disabled mother when she was nine, and wants to reclaim that passionate Self. But she must stand by her husband and protect her child, while Gavin’s behavior becomes more erratic and dangerous. “This emotional family saga blends psychological suspense with hard-won emotional breakthroughs. Kain has crafted a fast-paced contemporary thriller that delves with insight into themes of mental health. Readers who enjoy unreliable narrators and jolting plot twists will enjoy this.” ―All As from BookLife in Publishers Weekly
