Product Description
Proper, the breakfast chef at a luxurious Parisian hotel, discovers the corpse of a guest and becomes the prime suspect. Maigret, however, has his doubts about the obvious and begins his investigation in the labyrinth of service passages that winds beneath the hotel. Every scrupulous, the inspector examines accesses and charts, routines, unnerving the staff with his constant presence and annoying the guests until, intruding on an elegant tea dance, Maigret ends up with a punch to the jaw... and a murderer.

"This is the excellent foppery of the world, that, when we are sick in fortune, often the surfeit of our own behaviour, we make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon, and the stars; as if we were villains by necessity, fools by heavenly compulsion, knaves, thieves, and treachers by spherical predominance, drunkards, liars, and adulterers by an enforced obedience of planetary influence; and all that we are evil in, by a divine thrusting on: an admirable evasion of whore-master man, to lay his goatish disposition to the charge of a star!"
Shakespeare, King Lear (Edmund) Act I, scene ii
