โœฆ Synopsis


'The father of contemporary European detective fiction' Ann Cleeves

'He hadn't seen her arrive. She had stopped on the pavement a few steps away from him and was peering into the courtyard of the Police Judiciaire, where the small staff cars were parked.
__
She ventured as far as the entrance, looked the officer up and down, then turned round and walked away towards the Pont-Neuf'

When an old lady tells Maigret someone has been moving things in her apartment, she is dismissed as a fantasist - until a schocking event proves otherwise.

'One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century' Guardian
