The Mind-Murders and Two Other Great Mysteries

Description for THE MIND-MURDERS AND TWO OTHER GREAT MYSTERIES by Jan Willem Van De Wetering:

THE MIND-MURDERS:

Mr. Fortune is suspected of murdering his wife. Grijpstra and de Gier begin a search that leads to the unidentified corpse of a man stuffed into the trunk of a stolen Mercedes. But where is the body of Mrs. Fortune? Tracking a killer without a corpse and a corpse without a killer, the Amsterdam cops finally arrive at the bone chilling truth.

THE BLOND BABOON:

He Was Her After-Hours Lover, Her Partner in Passion. Was He After More?

Detectives Grijpstra and de Gier are summoned to investigate the death of Elaine Carnet, glamorous and successful international businesswoman. The corpse lay in a soaked heap at the foot of the garden steps. Her neck was broken. It was murder. But why?

The Commissaris and his superb team of detectives head up a perilous hunt for the killer in a tangled web of suspects.

Was it Elaine's daughter, Gabrielle, a vengeful seductress with an arsenal of sexual weapons; Bergen, her cunning partner; the irascible Italian supplier and kickback king, Pullini; or could it have been her bizarre and unpredictable ex-lover--the one with the visions, the one they call the Blond Baboon?

DEATH OF A HAWKER:

Amsterdam is normally sedate but today there is a riot in Newmarket Square. Constables have blocked access to adjoining Straight Tree Ditch Road all day. When the body of the "King" of the local street market is found in a room in his house on that street, his head bashed in, there are only two suspects: his lovely sister or the up-stairs boarder. Which one is the killer? Grijipstra and de Gier must discover the murderer's identity before another crime can be committed.
