Winter 1964. After a hit-and-run accident nearly kills her mother, Mike Hammer’s partner (both in life and the PI business), Velda Sterling, learns her father is not who she thought he is. Seeking to uncover her true, troubling heritage, Velda and Mike travel to Phoenix, Arizona—and sunny Dreamland Park, where retired law enforcement officers protect and corral notorious criminals held under Witness Protection.

Mike Hammer - Dig Two Graves sees Mike and Velda swept up in escalating violence, fueled by the missing millions from an armoured-car robbery. This dangerous pursuit leads them to a deadly midnight confrontation in a cemetery—where secrets are buried and open graves await.
