Resumen del Editor

Scotland, 1831. After a tumultuous courtship complicated by three deadly inquiries, Lady Kiera Darby is thrilled to have found both an investigative partner and a fiancé in Sebastian Gage. But with her well-meaning - and very pregnant - sister planning on making their wedding the event of the season, Kiera could use a respite from the impending madness. Commissioned to paint the portrait of Lady Drummond, Kiera is saddened when she recognizes the pain in the baroness' eyes. Lord Drummond is a brute, and his brusque treatment of his wife forces Kiera to think of the torment caused by her own late husband. Kiera isn't sure how to help, but when she finds Lady Drummond prostrate on the floor, things take a fatal turn. The physician called to the house, and Lord Drummond appears satisfied to rule her death natural, but Kiera is convinced that poison is the real culprit. Now, armed only with her knowledge of the macabre and her convictions, Kiera intends to discover the truth behind the baroness' death - no matter what or who stands in her way....

Another Fabulous Read

I cannot get enough of Lady Darby and Mr. Gage. Engaging mystery and just the right amount of heartwarming romance amidst the glamour and treachery of 19th century Scottish society.

Intregiing story line.

Love the 1840's time frame. The associated details were delightful.
I find readings by H. Wilds very enjoyable. She establishes strong character delineation, with charming accents and rhythm.
A strong, independent female lead is a real draw for me. I believe Ms. Huber develops her main character with depth and richness.

Liked the story line!

This one took a bit to figure out...also like the interplay between the main characters. I doubt you will be disappointed!

Did he or didn't he ?

I was so looking forward to this book. I have to admit though, it did not hold my interest like the first three. Lady Darby befriends Lady Drummond , whose portrait she was commissioned to paint. Kiera feels Lady Drummond is on the verge of revealing something to her but before she can find out what, Lady Drummond suddenly takes ill and dies. Kiera believes she was poisoned so she and Sebastian launch their own investigation into her "murder". Thwarted in their efforts , even by Sebastian's own father, they plow ahead to find the killer. Overall a good book but it just was as exciting for me as the ohers were.

Wonderful performance

I thoroughly enjoy these recordings of the Lady Darby mysteries. I believe I prefer them as audiobooks more than I would reading them, which is rare. The narrator is brilliant. I'm glad to have made it this far with Kiera and Gage and look forward to the next stage of their life.

A worthwhile addition to the series

I have read all of the Lady Darby mysteries and enjoyed this one almost as much as the others. Unfortunately, as with many series there comes a point when some of the characters and plots can get a bit stale and boring. I did feel a few twinges of that while reading this book. However, overall I thought it was an interesting read that kept my attention throughout.

I thought the narrator did an excellent job with the material.

Compelling Story

I would prefer another narrator. Ms. Wilds speaks clearly, and has a pleasant voice, but her emphasis and phrasing leaves something to be desired. Perhaps Davina Porter has spoiled me.

Great story!!!

I loved this one because it and the one before aren’t as gruesome as the first two. I don’t know if the next one will be but we will see. Also, I’m really starting to like Bonny Braeck. I’m sure I spelled that wrong but you know who I meant. It would be neat to see him in trouble for something and for the two Geige’s to get him out of it.😊
