Murder in Amsterdam
Albert Cornelis Baantjer. Intrigue Press, $13.95 (354pp) ISBN 978-1-890768-43-0
Intrigue Press offers readers two new additions to its WorldKrime list, a series that features compelling backgrounds for the dance between villain and hero: each mystery is set in an international locale and penned by a local author. Murder in Amsterdam is a pair of Dutch bestselling author and former police inspector A.C. Baantjer's Inspector DeKok stories (there are more than 40), ""DeKok and the Sunday Strangler"" and ""DeKok and the Corpse on Christmas Eve."" In the first, the inspector must determine who's killing the women of the red light district; in the second, he's forced to break the law in order to uphold it.
