Three Days in Amsterdam

Tanja Davia Tucker’s second novel, THREE DAYS IN AMSTERDAM is a layered, complex novel about trust and autonomy that explores how a woman discovers and takes the first steps to recover from deceit in her 17 year marriage. When Beth accompanies her much older husband, Dennis, on a business trip to Amsterdam, she realizes how emotionally abusive he is, and how much of herself she’s lost. Falling in love with the city itself, and fascinated by a stylish woman she meets in the flower market who works in the Red Light District, Beth faces a crossroads. The novel is full of small, delicate moments and details that create a rich physical and emotional landscape. The characters are strong and layered, the settings dimensional and evocative. There are plenty of surprises as Beth uncovers secrets and must plan her responses.
