Book Synopsis
AMSTERDAM 1980

A city in turmoil: rife with drug abuse, riots and terror threats in the run-up to the coronation of Queen Beatrix.  As Amsterdam's police force is overwhelmed by the civil war between law enforcement and squatters, local neighbourhood policeman Piet Huizen is seconded from his hometown Alkmaar to this cauldron. It should be daunting but he feels strangely liberated from the responsibilities of home and everyday work. Together with his three colleagues from across the country, he's only there temporarily and can even laugh at his own provincial outlook. Until a student goes missing.
