British author David Hewson is better known for writing two novels based on the hit Danish television show, The Killing, but this time, he’s in Amsterdam.
The novel follows a retired police detective who left the force after his own daughter was kidnapped and is still missing. When another girl is kidnapped in a similar fashion, he’s reinstated to solve the crime.
Though the book doesn’t focus at all on the international experience, the vivid portrayal of Amsterdam and Dutch culture make for a great read for any newcomer to the country.
