Publisher's Synopsis
When the body of an old tramp, Jake Kuper, is found in a secluded Amsterdam park, Dutch police detective Van Hijn is convinced this is the tenth victim of the serial killer stalking the city. Except, all previous victims were young, female and beautiful...
On the corpse Van Hijn finds contact details for Jon Reed, an Englishman who befriended Jake in London shortly before the murder. Van Hijn summons Jon to Amsterdam to fill in the missing pieces of the jigsaw.
But was Jake really a tramp? What discovery did he make about his identity that led him to life on the streets? And did his fate lie not in the hands of a serial killer - but in the death camps of the Holocaust 50 years before . . . ?
