Here is Inspector Maigret again, running head on into "les gangsters" - three Americans in Paris who couldn't care less about doing the tourist spots. Along with such oddly assorted characters as Luigi, proprietor of the Manhattan Bar; Adrienne, a Folies Bergere nude; and the Baron, a detective whose uniform invariably included pearl gray spats, Maigret found himself abruptly entangled in a web of high powered crime that reached from Missouri to Montmartre.
