Meet Van Der Valk, Amsterdam's best detective, in Nicolas Freeling's classic novel
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...
Perfect for fans of European crime fiction and police procedural mysteries, Van der Valk-Love in Amsterdam is a classic novel that follows Amsterdam's best detective as he investigates a brutal murder and takes the prime suspect on a tour of the investigation and his own past.
