Description:

Market trader Herman Klok and his wife Stientje have a successful fruit and vegetable business. Due to an alleged theft, he is sentenced to twenty hours of community service: he has to work as a paper picker. On the first day of his cleaning job, he finds a woman's hand in a park, smeared with blood. This gruesome discovery turns his life upside down and disrupts his marriage.

The hand turns out to be that of a murdered woman whose body is exhumed the next day. It is Joke Germeraad, a high-ranking civil servant at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It becomes an obsession for Herman to find the perpetrator, especially when it turns out that the woman has led a double life. In her spare time she was active as an SM mistress and she received 'gentlemen who arrived in limousines.'

Rob Scherjon (1938) was a journalist and information officer at the Rotterdam Library during his working life. He made his debut in 1991 with the crime novel Het Japanse medicijn (The Japanese Medicine). He then wrote a number of books, including Retour Toscane (novel), De mecenas (thriller) and Ode aan mijn houtkachel (stories from France). From 2001 to 2013 he lived in the Morvan in France. After returning to the Netherlands he wrote the exciting thriller Twee levens (Two Lives) based on a newspaper article about the double life of a female manager at a bank.
