Rick Walters, an amateur genealogist, stumbles upon a curious name while doing research: Marie de la Motte. His discovery leads him deep into the archives-and into the remarkable tale of a young woman who, in 1666, helps Willem Bolnes-brother-in-law of the famous painter Johannes Vermeer-escape from a harsh workhouse in Delft.

"Bold, distinctive, and innovative, Peters manages to establish his name in the literary world by fully following his own path-in the spirit of his characters." -Thrillzone For fans of dual-timeline historical fiction, Dutch Golden Age intrigue, and suspenseful quests into the past.
Autorenporträt
Frank Peters: Introspective Noir from the Dutch Countryside Frank Peters (b. 1962) lives and works in Babberich, a quiet border village in the Netherlands where his stories take root. With his debut novel, The Girl at the Window, he stepped into the Dutch-language thriller genre. His style is cinematic and observational, marked by psychological depth and a dry touch of humor. He writes as he lives: with an eye for detail, a sense of rhythm, and a deep fascination for people and what drives them. Beyond writing, Frank is a musician in the melancholic rock band Crescent Moon, where he plays alongside his sons and brother. His stories are not a sprint to the conclusion, but a layered journey through inner landscapes, quiet tensions, and moral gray zones. Always human, never sentimental. Always noir - but never black and white.
