Looking for a book that I read a few years ago. A detective in Amsterdam searches for the killer of a prostitute. A witness to the murder hides in a closet while the murder takes place. Thanks for any help. Wracking my brain doesn't seem to be working.

From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Widow_for_One_Year):
"It is 1990 and Ruth is thirty-six. She is in Europe, dealing with the failures of her love life as she herself has become a successful writer. Ruth is doing research on prostitutes in Amsterdam's red light district, and finds herself hiding in a closet while she observes the murder of a prostitute by the prostitute's client."
