ReviewsPraise for The Maine Massacre *Winner of the international Grand Prix de Littérature Policière* "Never before have [van de Wetering's] strengths seemed so strong: the genuine humor, decency, and wisdom of his Amsterdam policemen positively glow." -- Kirkus Reviews Praise for Janwillem van de Wetering "Mr. Van de Wetering's policemen are just as likely to . . . marvel at human nature as to shoot it down." -- The New York Times "[A] unique atmospheric mix of police procedure, quirky characters, and Zen outlook." - Boston Globe "[Van de Wetering] is doing what Simenon might have done if Albert Camus had sublet his skull." --John Leonard "What makes this series so engaging is that the policemen are as quirky and complicated as the criminals." -- The Washington Post
