The Amsterdam Connection (Chapter 11-16)

Summary:
After leaving de Vries’s smoky office, Kate went to the football match with Jos van Essen. They talked about Raul Sanchez, the goalkeeper of Rotterdam City Football Club. The football match was Rotterdam playing Barcelona, and Barcelona had won 2-1. They went back after the match was over; Jos van Essen gave a copy of the photograph of the Rotterdam team. Kate asked him to sign his name and write a little massage on the back. The words seemed like he had something different to Kate, but the next day he was found dead outside his apartment. Then Kate went to talk with the goalkeeper Raul Sanchez, and Raul said everything to her. So they called Elly and decided to get the evidence by recording the talk between Christiaans and Raul. But the plan was failed; Elly and Raul were caught by Christiaans. Kate was waiting for them, and then she was caught by him, too. He was the man who attacked her three days ago. Then they were locked in a cellar, Kate got out carefully and brought the police back to rescue them. Finally, Christiaans was been caught, Elly and Raul were safe. They told the police de Vries everything and the evidence about the Amsterdam Connection. Then Kate wrote down the story and sent to Balzano.

Reflection:

I think this book is very interesting and excited, because I always read it at night when everybody was asleep. So I can think of the story without other people annoyed me. I like Kate most because she is brave and smart. She can take action quickly, but sometimes put herself in danger. She was sad about Max and Jos van Essens’ death. Though she will start a new life after this, she won’t forget this and them. I’m looking forward to the next English novel which the teacher let us to read on winter vacation.
