Mortal Arts by Anna Lee Huber Book 2 of Lady Darby Mystery Scotland, 1830. Lady Kiera Darby is no stranger to intrigue—in fact, it seems to follow wherever she goes. After her foray into murder investigation, Kiera must journey to Edinburgh with her family so that her pregnant sister can be cl...
Lady Darby #2 I enjoyed reading this one as well but I had issues with it too. Fortunately, Lady Kiera Darby didn’t really have any TSTL moments here (I’m not sure how many more she could survive). [Ok, she does put herself at risk, but it seemed much more natural than what I took issue with in th...
Well that was depressing!I enjoyed the first book in the series (on audio) so much I decided to keep on killing those audible credits with the second book in the series. The story as performed by Heather Wilds was still a great listen, but was seriously a downer!This book continues the story of Lady...
When I checked out the first book from the library, I was unhappy to see they only had Vols. 1 and 3. Murder by Death told me I had to read them in order (and you can see how much I wanted to move on because I NEVER read out of order), I didn't know what to do. Fortunately, we were meeting MbD at bo...

I'll be honest, this was heading for a two star rating, but the last 1/4 of the book pulled it up a star. Once I got to that point, I could not stop reading.This series, there's so much potential in the premise, that it saddens me that it's not quite working for me. And a lot of it has to do with th...
This is the second in the Lady Darby Mystery series. The first is "The Anatomist's wife" and they do need to be read in order. At least I think so. The mysteries are resolved by the end of each book, but there is more development among the characters that is worth following in order. I loved the ...
No sophomore slump here. An excellent tale of murder and the evils that men do, that takes place in early 19th century Scotland. After the events that transpired in The Anatomist's Wife, Lady Kiera Darby is pulling herself together. She's no longer trying to disappear amongst the furniture. She...
I really enjoyed Ms. Huber's book and have the first of the series on my desk to read this week. Her protagonist, Lady Kiera Darby, is well-drawn and intelligent. (I appreciate intelligent female protagonists.) Darby's love interest, a man named Gage, is enjoyable (if predictable). Her foray into an...
