The police don't think much of the claim--that is, until a few hours later when Arlette is found in her room, strangled to death. The police scramble to track down the men in question, but the next day the Countess von Farnheim, a drug addict living not far from Picratt's, is found strangled. When Arlette's own identity turns out to have been falsified, Inspector Maigret steps in and must dive into Paris's seedy underbelly to discover the truth--before the killers can slip away.",
