Maigret Sets a Trap

Product Description

'High up in Montmartre, there was a festive atmosphere, people were crowding round the little tables where rosé wine was being served . . . Yet a hundred metres further on, the little alleyways were deserted, and the killer might find it easy to pounce'

Inspector Maigret, with his pipe, bowler hat and laconic manner, always outwits his enemies. But when someone starts killing women on the streets of Montmartre, he finds himself confounded. In the sweltering Paris summer heat, with the city in a state of siege, Maigret hatches a plan to lure the murderer out . . .

'The most addictive of writers.' Observer
