Toos: The Van der Valk Kidnapping

Cinematic storytelling powered by Moviepedia.

Toos and her husband, Gerrit van der Valk, run the largest hotel empire in the Netherlands. But on November 26, 1982, disaster struck: Toos was kidnapped in what would become one of the most sensational cases in Dutch history. While Gerrit and the children desperately searched, police officer Cor Mulder moved into Hotel Nuland to work undercover as "cousin Cor" to track down the kidnappers and keep the family afloat. The kidnapping gripped the entire country while Toos fought for her life in an undisclosed location. The media followed every detail, the government worried about the consequences of a possible ransom payment, and the perpetrators' demands became increasingly extreme. For twenty nerve-wracking days, Toos and her family fought for survival—and for each other.
