Anja de Jager's novel "The Murder of Andre Nieuwkamp" is a brilliant portrayal of isolation and a dysfunctional personality. It follows Detective Lotte Meerman as she interviews a man who claims to be Andre Nieuwkamp, only to find his corpse at the Hotel Mondrian. DNA tests reveal that he was Andre, and Lotte has a double mystery to solve. The novel is praised for its evocation of a cold Amsterdam and its clever plotting.

When Lotte Meerman is presented with the decision of interviewing the most recent victim in a series of assaults or speaking with a man who claims he is not actually dead, she chooses the interview. After all, the man cannot possibly be who he claims to be: Andre Nieuwkamp was murdered as a teenager over thirty years ago, and it had been a police success story nationwide when the skeletal remains found in the dunes outside Amsterdam had been identified, and the murderer subsequently arrested. Yet concerned about this encounter, Lotte goes to the Hotel Mondrian the next day to talk to the man, but what she finds is his corpse. And his passport shows that he was not Andre Nieuwkamp as he said, but Theo Brand, a British citizen. Subsequent DNA tests reveal that the man was Andre Nieuwkamp, so now Lotte has a double mystery on her hands and needs to figure out not only why Andre waited so long to tell anyone he was still alive, but also who was the teenager murdered in the dunes all those decades ago.
Praise for Anja de Jager: An impressive debut. . . De Jager is as good on dodgy family relations as she is on police procedure. The Times Detective Lotte Meerman is damaged by her past and tortured by the dreadful mistake she has made at work. . . Amsterdam in the vicious grip of a bitter winter is the other star here, beautiful and deadly. Cath Staincliffe A tightly written, cleverly plotted whodunit that keeps the reader guessing almost to the last page. Irish Examiner de Jager manages to circumvent the over.
