The Gages are Back in Anna Lee Huber’s A Tarnished Canvas
Now that I am reading this series as each book is getting published, I have quite positive feelings about the Gages and the Kiera Darby Mystery series as a whole. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, they say, and on top of that, A Tarnished Canvas, the new instalment in the long-running series, has the…

My Thoughts on Anna Lee Huber’s Lady Darby Mysteries (so far)
Anna Lee Huber’s Kiera Darby mystery series is a fun, immersive, and delightfully deadly Regency-era murder mystery series that spans the United Kingdom, starting in the Scottish Highlands and moving down into London and Southern England, making a stopover in Dublin during the fifth book (excluding the novella from the official book count). Having read…

Questions are Answered in A Fatal Illusion
I’ve been wondering for some time now when we will get some explanation in regards to the way Lord Gage speaks of and treats his family. He has been such a prevalent character in the latter half of the series and it seems strange the murkiness surrounding such backstory would be pushed back time and…

The Grave Matter of A Grave Matter
Anna Lee Huber’s third instalment in the Lady Darby Mystery Series, A Grave Matter, had me rolling; rolling with laughter, rolling my eyes, rolling over and screaming into the pillow. Many rolls were had while reading this and many rolls, particularly forehead ones, were made trying to remember what happens in this book. Let’s start…

Mortal Arts – I Love Everything About This Book Especially Sebastian Gage
Mortal Arts by Anna Lee Huber, the second novel in her Lady Darby Mystery Series, is a book I loved from the moment I opened the cover. Upon reading the excerpt about PTSD and thanking those who have served that had to suffer the effects post-deployment before the world understood what PTSD was, I felt…

The Anatomist’s Wife – Good Ol’ Scottish Historical Fiction Murder Mystery
I’m a historical fiction fanatic. More specifically, the murder mystery side of historical fiction. I can and will read other historical fiction books but my heart lies with the slightly gruesome, dark, immersive worlds of sleuthing and investigating while in polite society. The Anatomist’s Wife by Anna Lee Huber ticks so many boxes for me…
