From the acclaimed master of action and suspense. The all time classic.
Paul Sherman of Interpol's Narcotics Bureau flies to Amsterdam on the trail of a dope king.
With enormous skill the atmosphere is built up: Amsterdam with its canals and high houses; stolid police; psychopaths; women in distress and above all - murder.
Sherman's pursuit of the elusive kingpin takes him through the city's labyrinthine canals, a testament to the book's adventure and fiction genre. The narrative's top-notch suspense and the protagonist's best efforts to navigate through the high houses and stolid police make this a must-read.
For fans of Frederick Forsyth (The Veteran), Nevil Shute (A Town Like Alice), Ken Follett (The Armour of Light), Edward Marston (The Railway Detective's Christmas Case), and Eric Ambler (The Mask of Dimitrios).
