Inspector Maigret accompanies his friend and physician on an emergency call and is drawn into a common street crime. Or so it appears at first, but this is not the obvious murder that it seems. Maigret is lead to a mysterious killer who leaves exasperating clues. Translated from the French. First published in 1969. A quick straight-forward detective story. Even though the work is translated French names have been retained for places and addresses.
