Publisher's summary

Returning to her childhood home, Lady Kiera Darby hopes her beloved brother Trevor and the merriment of the Hogmanay Ball will distract her. But when a caretaker is murdered and a grave is disturbed at nearby Dryburgh Abbey, Kiera is once more thrust into the cold grasp of death. While Kiera knows that aiding in another inquiry will only further tarnish her reputation, her knowledge of anatomy could make the difference in solving the case. But agreeing to investigate means Kiera must deal with the complicated emotions aroused in her by inquiry agent Sebastian Gage. When Gage arrives, he reveals that the incident at the Abbey was not the first - some fiend is digging up old bones and holding them for ransom. Now they must catch the grave robber… before another victim winds up six feet under.

Another Engaging Mystery

Kiera and Gage find themselves in the midst of yet another case when a party attended by Kiera comes to an end after a murder and grave robbery. Kiera's uncle persuades her to ask for Gage's help, and the adventure begins. The trail is long, with a number of pitfalls along the way; and that applies both to the case and Kiera and Gage's relationship. I do love these characters, as well as Kiera's family members. I cannot wait to see what mystery they become embroiled in next.

Love the characters and the basic story but....

Too much romance and I really don’t care what color any clothes are. Still a good yarn.

Pronunciation errors

Ok, I love the characters of Lady Darby and Gage. The mystery is well plotted and I will finish up the series. But good grief the word is pronounced "SKELetal" not "skeLATal" Drove me crazy.
