Summary

A young woman named Lulu, who has a history of brushes with the law and once lived on the streets of the 18th arrondissement, is found murdered in Paris. Maigret is called to the scene and soon learns that her boyfriend, a musician, has gone into hiding upon reading the news of her death. And when the inspector learns that the young victim was pregnant, he begins to suspect the case might be more sinister than he imagined.

Another excellent Maigret story.

Once again, the writing of Simenon puts most others into the shade with its inventiveness and powers of description and character analysis. Also, yet again, the narration by Gareth Armstrong is superb and makes every character utterly believable. I always picture Michael Gambon as Maigret when listening to these stories.
