Love in Amsterdam by Nicolas Freeling
Alluring, unstable, and frantically self-absorbed, Elsa de Charmoy was a dangerous woman, and now she's a dead one, shot with a gun bought by her former lover. Sulking in an Amsterdam jail, he swears it's been years since he saw Elsa, but Inspector Van der Valk isn't quite ready to be persuaded. Like Inspector Maigret (to whom he is often compared), Van der Valk tends to pick apart the details, ideally over a good meal. And while Van der Valk's ruminations may frustrate his more action-minded colleagues, they inevitably yield a surprising resolution.
Nicolas Freeling has spent much of his adult life in Europe achieving success first as a chef and later as a celebrated novelist. He is the author of 35 highly-acclaimed crime novels, including The Janeites, Some Day Tomorrow and Because of all the Cats, all published by Arcadia. He is the winner of the Golden Dagger Award from the Crime Writers' Association, the Grand Prix de Roman Policier and the Edgar Allen Poe Award of the Mystery Writers of America.
