Needle Point

by Jenny Roberts

Cameron McGill\'s journalist sister, Carrie, has been found dead in an Amsterdam canel with needle marks all down her arm. No matter how she tries, Cameron can\'t believe that Carrie would ever take drugs - even though the police are adamant that she did. When they close the case for good, Cam decides to take matters into her own hands and goes to Amsterdam to find out exactly what happened to her sister. Once there, she encounters radical squatters, evasive drug agencies, a German vamp called Helga and a particularly attractive policewoman whom she finds hard to resist. But it\'s hard to know who to trust in a quest that might ultimately claim her life as gruesomely as it took her sister\'s.

[Jack · Rating 3 out of 5]

Sex, drugs and romance feature in this filmic thriller set in Amsterdam.

[Amber · Rating 3 out of 5]

I appreciated that the story followed all the way through, felt like it was planned before the writing started to some degree and that was nice. Mostly I felt like it was "fine". Not in love, don't hate it.

NEEDLE POINT is tightly written and mostly fast-paced. The author has some knowledge of the Dutch language, the city of Amsterdam and the squat movement in general.
