Description

“A writer as comfortable with reality as with fiction, with passion as with reason.” —John Le Carré

When a man is killed outside a Parisian boarding house, Inspector Maigret moves in to get to the bottom of it

While keeping watch outside Mademoiselle Clément’s boarding house to await a suspect in a local bar robbery, a man named Janvier is shot in the chest. When Maigret, whose wife is away caring for her sister in Alsace, hears of the crime, he moves into the boarding house to solve the case. But the web quickly grows ever-more tangled, and Maigret must navigate generations-long secrets and a torrid affair to find his answers before it’s too late.
