Description
Georges Simenon's gripping domestic tragedy follows Inspector Maigret as he uncovers a tragic story of desperate lives, unhappy families, addiction and a terrible, fatal greed.
A series of events unfolds in the dimly-lit streets of his own neighborhood, where one by one the lighted windows go dark. The silhouette of the dead man can still be seen through the frosted glass like a Chinese shadow puppet.
