The thirteenth Amsterdam Cops mystery

The commissaris is about to retire from the Amsterdam police force when volunteer officer Johan Termeer approaches him for help.

The commissaris agrees to look into the matter since he’s already heading to New York for a law enforcement convention, and brings Sergeant de Gier along with him.
