When a prominent figure from the Paris restaurant world turns up dead,
Inspector Maigret is on the case
The body of a well-known Parisian restaurateur turns up on Avenue Junot
in Montmartre, having seemingly been killed elsewhere. Inspector Maigret
dives into the investigation and soon discovers that the murder may be
gang-related after a colleague working in the red-light district
receives a tip from an anonymous informer.
Deeply engrossing, and revealing insights about the class-conscious
world of the Paris elite, Maigret and the Informer draws the reader
into a complicated case that could hinge on one man's word.
