Overview
In a dimly lit apartment building, where shadowy figures come and go, a man has been killed in Georges Simenon’s The Shadow Puppet.
On the dimly lit Place des Vosges, Maigret hears the sound of a woman in distress. But this is no crime: she is giving birth in a room above. The lights of the apartment windows flicker, and Maigret sees shadowy figures at the window. Behind one is a dead man and an empty safe. As one life begins, another has come to a dark end.
In this installment of the Inspector Maigret series, the Parisian detective uncovers a tragic story of desperate lives, unhappy families, addiction, and a terrible, fatal greed.
