Críticas

Praise for The Hollow-Eyed Angel

"True to form, van de Wetering keeps you guessing, tempers unflinching violence and amoral activities with thoughtful perspectives, and leaves his regular characters plenty of room to grow . . . Engaging."
--Entertainment Weekly

"Van de Wetering has a light touch as he moves his detectives through one interview after another, the evidence mixed always with issues of morality and punishment, intent and act . . . Keep[s] you moving along with a satisfied smile."
--Washington Book Post World

"First and foremost in the genre is, once again, Janwillem van de Wetering . . . He knows police work and policemen, and he's as sly as a Zen koan."
--Men's Journal

"A welcome addition to a unique series. This is a Dutch treat that is an acquired taste. But it is certainly one worth acquiring."
--Maine Sunday Telegram

"[A] satisfying mystery along with the extensive character studies. Janwillem van de Wetering knows what he's about."
--Trenton Times

"A most enjoyable addition to a fine series."

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. Johan fears his elderly uncle has been murdered in faraway New York, the corpse found decimated by animals in Central Park. 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.
