'Compelling, remorseless, brilliant' John Gray What was the woman
doing here? In a stable, wearing pearl earrings, her stylish
bracelet and white buckskin shoes! She must have been alive when
she got there because the crime had been committed after ten in the
evening. But how? And why? And no one had heard a thing! She had
not screamed. The two carters had not woken up. Inspector Maigret
is standing in the pouring rain by a canal. A well-dressed woman,
Mary Lampson, has been found strangled in a stable nearby. Why did
her glamorous, hedonistic life come to such a brutal end here?
Surely her taciturn husband Sir Walter knows - or maybe the answers
lie with the crew of the barge La Providence. This novel has been
published in previous translations as Lock 14 and Maigret Meets a
Milord. 'One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century'
