An attempt on Kiera’s life bolsters their belief that a killer is afoot. Most Recommended Books presents the Anna Lee Huber series written by Anna Lee. ![]() Gage, who carries out discreet private inquiries for members of the nobility, and Kiera are convinced Helmswick was murdered, evidently weeks before the corpse’s discovery. The man may be Lord Helmswick, the duchess’s son-in-law, who was believed to have left for Paris a month earlier, but damage to the man’s face from animals feeding on the body prevents positive identification. There, in a chamber that once housed prisoners awaiting torture, the couple come upon a male corpse with a fatal head wound. Anna Lee Huber has hit another home-run with A Stroke of Malice. In Huber’s gripping eighth Lady Darby whodunit (after 2019’s An Artless Demise), it’s 1832, and the hopes of Lady Kiera Darby and her husband, Sebastian Gage, for a relaxing stay at a Scottish castle belonging to the Duchess of Bowmont are dashed during a tour of the castle’s lower level. ![]()
