Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Amsterdam Affair was adapted from the novel Love in Amsterdam by Nicholas Freeling. Wolfgang Kieling heads the cast as Inspector Van Der Valk, called in to investigate a woman's murder. The prime suspect is a novelist (William Marlowe) who had conducted a lengthy affair with the dead woman. The case has been designated as open and shut by the police and the press, but Van Der Valk wants to probe a little deeper. Amsterdam Affair was filmed on location in Holland with an essentially British crew; it was released in the US by the broadcast conglomerate Group W.
