There are already several threads that discuss MZB, her crimes, and her work. Perhaps those would be more appropriate places to continue this discussion?

I'm sorry, but why? You wanna debate whether to patronize her work in light of her personal crimes, fine, but why should that prevent other people from being allowed to purchase it?

And The Tainted Cup is now £0.99 in the UK...

Kindle UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CDDMVJ64
Kobo UK: https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/the-tainted-cup-2

I read this based on the mystery-in-a-fantasy thing, and loved it. Enough to actually do a review for my blog, which is really rare for me, since I have enough trouble keeping up with reviewing the review copies I receive, much less everything else I read...

One note - in spite of the first sentence of its blurb,

Quote:
A Holmes and Watson–style detective duo take the stage in this fantasy with a mystery twist, from the Edgar-winning, multiple Hugo-nominated Robert Jackson Bennett
The Tainted Cup is really a Nero Wolfe/Archie Goodwin pastiche, confirmed by the author in his acknowledgements. (FWIW, he also compares Ana to Hannibal Lecter...) Maybe the blurb-writer thought no one would know who Wolfe and Goodwin were? Or maybe Holmes and Watson were the only detective duo the blurb-writer knew? In any case, well worth a read IMO.

First in a new series.

Fortunately, one of my OD libraries has it.
