Wolf

Van der valk is balancing his intuition with the forensic clues in this episode.

Wolf is a young man from Germany who has been living in Amsterdam for a year. He might be a bit of a gigolo.

The episode opens with Wolf being shot. Van der Valk thinks it was a deranged woman. There were several shots fired, some missing wildly. The gun was left behind.

Suspects include a prostitute and a drug addict as some money was also missing.

It was good to see Van der Valk discussing the case with forensic experts. He even discusses the case with Arlette as well, different types of perfumes.

There is a lot of misdirection left behind by the killer which makes this unusual.
