Description
The locked room says impossible. Ana Dolabra disagrees. A Drop of Corruption is the gripping second book in Robert Jackson Bennett’s Ana and Din Mysteries, published by Del Rey in April 2025. Following 2024’s The Tainted Cup, it reunites eccentric investigator Ana Dolabra and her assistant Dinios Kol for another seemingly impossible case.
When an official vanishes from a locked room, Ana and Din are called in to unravel what looks like an impossible crime. Set in Bennett’s richly imagined Empire—where strange augmentations blur the line between science and the uncanny—the novel blends classic detective work with inventive, biopunk-tinged fantasy.
Sharp, witty, and full of clever twists, it delivers everything fans of The Tainted Cup loved: a brilliant detective, a loyal assistant, and a mystery that keeps you guessing to the very end. Read it as the second stop in the series—a must-read sequel that raises the stakes in every way.
