What you need to know before your trail

Lotte Meerman, a Cold Case detective still recovering from the emotional devastation of her previous investigation.

A tip-off leads Lotte to an unresolved ten-year-old murder case in which her father was the lead detective. When she discovers irregularities surrounding the original investigation that make him a suspect, she decides to cover for him. She doesn’t tell her boss about the family connection and jeopardises her career by hiding evidence. Now she has to find the real murderer before her acts are discovered, otherwise her father will go to jail and she will lose her job, the one thing in life she still takes pride in . .

Travel Guide

Amsterdam

It’s a cold, dark, bleak New Year in Amsterdam

Not ideal to be driving at night – and worse luck still for Lotte who  stumbles across the robbery of a petrol station. The suspect turns out to be Ben van Ravensberger, whose uncle is a wealthy, media celebrity.  Ravensberger was one  of the investors in Petersen capital and 12 years ago, a certain Otto Petersen was murdered.

The dark side of the city

Murky canals, dark alleys, financial fraud and a city on the edge.

But there is colour in this city:

“The balconies were painted sky-blue, giving the block the appearance of a faded Swedish Flag. There were the types of flats appreciated by  retired people”

“The  apartment block where Wouter Vos lived was built out of a yellow brick, the colour of the cheeses that got carried around Alkmaar’s cheese market on Fridays.”
