Amsterdam: Ein Meisterdieb jagt seinen Schatten. Krimi (Allgemeine Reihe. Bastei Lübbe Taschenbücher)

The book balances dark themes with a lighthearted tone that keeps it engaging. I'm curious whether this was a conscious choice or evolved naturally.

The city’s quirks and atmosphere really came alive in the story. I wonder how much research went into capturing its vibe authentically.

It's refreshing to see a morally grey character taking center stage. Did the author have a particular influence or message in mind with this choice?
