The Amsterdam Conection - Sue Leather

The Amsterdam Connection is a misterious story. Kate Jensen is a reporter who travels to Amsterdam when her very close friend Max is found dead there.
The police in Amsterdam conclude that Max was killed by an drug addict who was trying to get money. Kate don't believe in that story and she goes there to search for her friend's killer and starts asking questions at football club he owned. There it clear that someone doesn't want her to get answers and Kate discovers how dangerous the football business can be.
This is a interesting mistery story, easy reading, it makes us thinks of the mistery all the time. The theme is up to date, showing the corruption inside the football, and its relationship with the lottery big amount beting.

It possible to search the library catalogue from home by Internet. The Library can also help you to find any kind of information that you need about using the material they have, like books, exercises books, dictonaries, history books, etc.
