Blood of Titans
This brilliant fantasy whodunit pits eccentric investigator Ana Dolabro against a seemingly omniscient adversary...
In the city of Folidol, on the very edge of the Empire, a certain official of the Banking Administration has come down to earth. He literally disappeared from a room at the top of a heavily guarded tower with doors and windows locked from the inside. So the Empire turns to its cleverest and most skilled investigator, the redoubtable Ana Dolabra, to solve the case. By her side, as always, is her assistant Dinios Kol, marvelling at her wit and bluntness.
Ana soon discovers that she's not really investigating a disappearance, but a murder - carried out by an extremely cunning adversary who can walk through secure doors like a ghost. Worse, the assassin is apparently about to strike at the heavily guarded compound known as the Shroud, where the Empire drains the miraculous blood of slain titans. If the Shroud falls, the Empire will lose the magic that keeps it going, and quite possibly collapse.
Din has witnessed more than once how his supervisor has solved seemingly unsolvable cases. But the casualties are mounting, the enemy anticipates her every move with incredible foresight... and Dino's fear that for the first time Ana has encountered an adversary she can't handle.
