DeKok and the Dead Lovers by A. C. Baantjer Pdf

"Inspector DeKok and his partner Vledder are ordered to protect the eccentric Manfred Nettelhorst's art treasures, exhibited during a special showing in Amsterdam. But before the exhibition has come to a close, the two detectives are called away to a nearby apartment building to investigate the murder of a man handcuffed to a radiator, shot execution style. That same night, an exquisite silver ewer is stolen from the exhibition." "Following the crime trail, DeKok stumbles across an invisible line between beauty and unblemished beauty, relating to the collection of both objects and people. Death seems to be a curse that follows around the unblemished beauty of one Therese de la Fontaine. But is it a curse or the malevolent desires of the person who wants to keep her as a collector's item?"--BOOK JACKET.

DeKok and the Sorrowing Tomcat by Baantjer Pdf

Albert Cornelis Baantjer is the Netherland's most widely read author and his hero DeKok is adored and highly praised. The cases DeKok faces are so real that sometimes he and his creator are thought to be the same person since Baantjer worked as a homicide detective in Amsterdam for twenty-five years. In this latest adventure to make it overseas, DeKok investigates the murder of a young conman with whom he used to deal. On the sand dunes that protect the low lands of the Netherlands, an early morning jogger makes a gruesome discovery-the body of a man with a dagger protruding from his back. The corpse of Peter Geffel, better known as "Cunning" Pete, is identified, but the local police cannot find any clues. When the call goes out to notify other jurisdictions of the discovery, Homicide Detective DeKok feels drawn to the case because he knew the victim. Along with his inseparable side-kick Vledder, DeKok searches the city of Amsterdam for answers. Soon there is another corpse and, unlikely as it may seem, the killing of Cunning Pete is connected to a killing in higher social circles.
