Maigret Sets a Trap (Inspector Maigret‪)‬

With no leads to follow, Maigret must entrap a serial killer on the loose in Paris.

A serial killer stalks the sweltering streets of summertime Montmartre, murdering women and disappearing without a trace into the district’s maze of side streets and back alleys. With no leads and only a vague psychological profile, Maigret makes a risky bet to draw the killer into a trap. The case doesn’t get any simpler once he has a suspect, however, as Maigret himself becomes entangled in a web of domestic intrigue and insecurity, one that just might reveal why the killer kills. Georges Simenon’s Maigret Sets a Trap is a thrilling, fast-paced race to crack the case and a disturbing window into the twisted psyche of a murderer, one whose motives will haunt the inspector long after the particulars have been unraveled.
