The Murdered Street Musician is a complex mystery, which will exceed the reader's interaction with the story. It is a standalone book, but the main characters of the investigation and certain locations are the same as those in this author's previous mystery, The Secret. The Murdered Street Musician is a mystery with a lot of food for thought, and an excess of crimes and suspects. Blackmail, threats, multiple murders, but also a dose of humor and camaraderie, are featured. Surprising from start to finish, with many twists and ultimately smart solutions. The mystery about the murdered street musician is the beginning of a long-term collaboration between a professional investigation team from the police headquarters in Rotterdam and a detective agency from a small neighboring village. The mix of using novice amateur sleuths from this small village, and the professionals of the detective team, makes the book unique.
