I also like <i>DeKok and the Disillusioned Corpse</i> and <i>DeKok and the Deadly Warning</i>. <br /><br />Of course, I have a weak spot <i>DeKok and the Sorrowing Tomcat</i>. ;)<br /><br />Note of warning: the translator took some minor liberties with the translation, which John touched upon in his review of <i>Seance</i>. <br /><br />TomCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03415176301265218101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516189026477178777.post-49742425307498880952015-06-13T06:40:33.198+02:002015-06-13T06:40:33.198+02:00I haven't read any of Baantjer's books but...I haven't read any of Baantjer's books but your various posts on this author have got me intrigued. Which is the best Baantjer book to start with? It has to be available in an English translation though.dfordoomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02306293859869179118noreply@blogger.com
