Summary

A downloadable audiobook edition of this new crime thriller, read by Daniel Weyman.

A body is found hanging on a hook above the canals of Amsterdam's old town. In a remote coastal village, a doll lies in the ashes of a burnt down house. But the couple who died in the blaze were childless. Did a little girl escape the blaze? And if so, who is she and where is she now?

Inspector Jaap Rykel knows that he must halt a clever and brutal murderer. And the investigation reveals two dark truths: Everybody in this city harbours secrets - and hearing those secrets comes at a terrible price...

So sexist!

I really enjoyed this story, which was read beautifully, as always, by Daniel Weyman. I’ve taken a star off overall because I found myself rolling my eyes at the blatant sexualisation of females throughout. Unwelcome, unnecessary and frankly, I thought the world had moved on from it by 2014. It might be my loss but the moment it’s putting me off reading more from this author, no matter how good the story.

No blame

Thrilling roller coaster of an end left me feeling almost breathless.

I knew nothing about Dutch police so interesting eye opener and also a not so touristic view of Amsterdam!

Excellent narration combined with a story like strands of rope being twisted together made for a tight, well-told story.
