The results of the poll are in and the category for our next series group read is mystery/suspense/thriller. It's time to begin nominating your choice of a series you'd like considered for 2024 in this genre.

There are only a few rules:

1. You're limited to nominating a maximum of three series.
2. Each nominated series must have at least three books.
3. The books in the series must be available for purchase.
4. Your nomination must include the series name and author (check on Goodreads for the proper series name).

Nominations will close after November 15 and the poll will be created for voting. The top five in each poll will move to a final vote unless there’s a clear choice.

Let the nominations begin!

Sharon Kallenberger Marzola | 2114 comments There are currently 11 books and two novellas

The Lady Darby Mysteries

The first book is The Anatomist's Wife (Lady Darby Mystery, #1) by Anna Lee Huber

It is a historical mystery. “A riveting debut…an original premise, an enigmatic heroine, and a compelling Highland setting…a book you won’t want to put down.”—New York Times bestselling author Deanna Raybourn

Scotland, 1830. Following the death of her husband, Lady Darby has taken refuge at her sister’s estate, finding solace in her passion for painting. But when her hosts throw a house party for the cream of London society, Kiera is unable to hide from the ire of those who believe her to be as unnatural as her husband, an anatomist who used her artistic talents to suit his own macabre purposes.

Kiera wants to put her past aside, but when one of the house guests is murdered, her brother-in-law asks her to utilize her knowledge of human anatomy to aid the insufferable Sebastian Gage—a fellow guest with some experience as an inquiry agent. While Gage is clearly more competent than she first assumed, Kiera isn’t about to let her guard down as accusations and rumors swirl.

When Kiera and Gage’s search leads them to even more gruesome discoveries, a series of disturbing notes urges Lady Darby to give up the inquiry. But Kiera is determined to both protect her family and prove her innocence, even as she risks becoming the next victim…
