In this next book in the popular Inspector DeKok Investigates series, a strange incident leads DeKok to discover the disappearance of a woman from an Amsterdam hospital. Upon further investigation, he is surprised to find that three more women have disappeared in the same mysterious way. The seasoned detective soon finds himself following a trail with many twists and turns, losing his way many times but relying on his usual dogged determination and sharp observation to see him through. Speck Press is translating and releasing for the first time in the United States all sixty volumes of the Inspector DeKok Investigates series, more than five million copies of which have been sold in the Netherlands and beyond. The riveting mysteries have achieved a large following among readers in Europe and inspired a popular television series, and they continue to receive much international acclaim.

In the book, there is a struggle between individuals who believe a small number of their female relatives, friends, or girlfriends have visited a particular hospital never to be heard from again, and hospital staff who argue these women never arrived. it is truly a spooky and disturbing concept to hear the epitomes of professionalism and care deny that the inpatients did not exist. The secondary characters are cut-outs except for one art forger and DeKok's supervisor takes an interesting angle and provides a subtle and atypical detective's boss.
The book was a tight, amazingly fast read. No recounting of dreams, musings, sentimental histories, drawn-out explanations of past cases or DeKok's personal life. Just solving a mystery, plain and simple. ( )
