Meet Georgina McKenzie. She's student at the University of Amsterdam, studying with the hope of becoming a criminologist.

She gets to test what she's learned so far when a bomb is detonated close by. She has her own opinion and doesn't agree with the media's reporting of a suicide-bomber.

Investigating the case is cynical Inspector Paul van den Bergen. He has the best solve-rate on the force, but like George, his rebellious nature makes him ever the outsider. Realizing he needs her unique insight into the criminal mind to find the culprit behind the terror attack, he asks for George’s help.

When young men start dying in unnatural circumstances, George begins to suspect that the bombing and these deaths are tied together.

Investigating together, they find that most everyone lies ... most have secrets ... and they will do anything to keep those secrets buried.

It's when someone targets George that they understand they are close to the truth.

THE GIRL WHO WOULDN'T DIE is a page-turner, full of suspense, and fast-paced action. There are many suspects to watch carefully and all are finely drawn and credible. Georgia is a unique character, in a very different location. Although mainly set in Amsterdam, there's also a smattering of London.

George, herself, is smart, and is unafraid to go after what she wants. And right now, she's happiest with rooting out the danger she is facing. There are several story lines to follow, each leading to an explosive and surprising conclusion.

Flicking through my kindle wondering what to read next, I realised I had purchased this book back in August 2015, so I thought it high time I read it. As I also have the next book I thought it would be good to catch up on a series I hadn't started yet.
I had read a few reviews on the books a good while back, and decided I needed to go into it with an open mind.
​While it was an interesting read, I found I struggled quite a bit with some of the pronunciations, but tried not to let this put me off.
 Set mostly in Amsterdam, The Girl Who Wouldn't Die is the first of what I believe is so far 4 books.
​It's a readable read, but I didn't find myself drawn in, or really needing to keep picking up the book. It didn't seem to grab me or hold me and I found I continued reading for the sake of reading it.
I will however continue with the series as I am hoping the next book will draw me in some more, and being a little more familiar with the characters should help me along
