Love in Amsterdam

by Nicolas Freeling
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
In this classic mystery, a Dutch police detective investigates a woman's murder with assistance from the man accused of killing her.
A woman, Elsa, is brutally murdered in her Amsterdam apartment. Her ex-lover, Martin, is seen outside the building around the time of the crime. The witness who saw him? A policeman.
It looks like a straightforward case—but police inspector Van der Valk is not convinced. Despite all the evidence—and the fact that Martin originally denied he was at the apartment—he believes Martin is not guilty of murder. Instead of charging him, Van der Valk takes him on a tour: a tour of the investigation, a tour of Martin's own past and a tour into the darkly obsessive world of Elsa . . .

Praise for Nicolas Freeling and Van der Valk
"Freeling's Inspector Van der Valk is less rugged than Rebus, less parsonical than Dalgliesh, more Morse than Frost, and more Maigret than any of them. Marvelous." —Anita Brookner
"[Freeling] has given the detective story new dimensions much as John Le Carré has done for the spy novel." —Newsweek
