Join inspector DeKok in his investigations in the DeKok series by Dutch bestselling author Baantjer. Murder of an Antwerp criminal with Amsterdam roots means DeKok has to solve an international crime. At the request of the Belgian police, Inspectors DeKok and Vledder attend the funeral of a murder victim. The body was fished out of Antwerp’s Scheldt River, but brought back to Amsterdam to be laid to rest there. During the service DeKok spies the face of a man long known to be dead. Further bodies are discovered, apparently they too were poisoned and dumped in the river. DeKok is forced to venture from his beloved Amsterdam and travel to Bloedberg (“Blood Mountain”), a notorious neighborhood in Antwerp, to continue his enquiries.

''There are touches of the 87th Precinct, Maigret and Janwillem de Wetering, but Baantjer is in a category all his own.'' - The Globe and Mail.... Although at first it seemed to be a case for the narcotics division, this latest crime soon evolves into a series of sinister and almost impossible murders. Never before have inspectors DeKok and his partner Vledder been so involved in a case whereby murder, drug smuggling, and child prostitution are almost daily occurrences. Blackmail enters the picture and bodies continue to be found. DeKok even finds himself allowing one of the suspects in the serial crimes to go free. In the past a single murder used to dominate the front pages of the newspapers for weeks, but now they get maybe four or six lines on page fourteen, third column, near the bottom. Death has become commonplace in the news, but never for DeKok.

''There are touches of the 87th Precinct, Maigret and Janwillem de Wetering, but Baantjer is in a category all his own.'' -The Globe and Mail.... In Inspector DeKok's line of work, death is commonplace. But encountering figures from the dead certainly is not. At the request of the Belgium police, Inspectors DeKok and Vledder attend the funeral of a murder victim. The body was fished out of Antwerp's Scheldt River, but brought back to Amsterdam to be laid to rest in Sorrow Field Cemetery. During the service DeKok spies the face of a man long known to be dead. Whispers of the gray sleuth's sanity are uttered but DeKok is certain of a darker more sinister activity at play than just the ridiculous notion of ghosts. Further bodies are discovered, apparently they too were poisoned and dumped in the river. DeKok is forced to venture from his beloved city and travel to Bloedberg (''Blood Mountain''), a notorious neighborhood in Antwerp. It seems a certain Heaven's Gate Temple and the Holy Pact for the Dying hold the answers to both the living dead and the dead and buried.
