Ein Fall und eine Heimkehr: Maigret ermittelt an dem Ort, an dem Simenon ihn einst erfand. Jean Duclos, Professor in Nancy, wird auf einer Vortragsreise des Mordes verdächtigt. Sein Gastgeber Conrad Popinga wurde erschossen, Duclos mit der Tatwaffe in der Hand gesichtet. Maigret hat es bei seinen Ermittlungen in der Hafenstadt Delfzijl nicht leicht: Die niederländischen Kollegen wollen um jeden Preis einen Skandal vermeiden, der vermeintliche Täter möchte den Fall lieber selbst lösen. Erschwerend kommt hinzu, dass Maigret der Landessprache nicht mächtig ist.

The attempted suicide of a countess and the death of a billionaire in the same luxury Paris hotel send Maigret to the Riviera and then to Switzerland, as he searches for the truth amid the glittering world of the super rich. Eyes half closed, head tilted against the back of his seat, he seemed not to be thinking, as the plane flew over a thick carpet of bright clouds. In reality, he was making an effort to bring names and shadowy figures to life, names and figures that even this morning had been as unknown to him as the inhabitants of another planet.

What was it about him that had struck Maigret so forcefully? Little John had cold eyes! Four or five times in his life, he had met people with cold eyes, those eyes that can stare at you without establishing any human contact. Persuaded to sail to New York by a fearful young law student, Maigret finds himself drawn into the city's underworld and a wealthy businessman's closely guarded past.

The death of a homeless man in a condemned building in Les Halles leads Maigret on the trail of the vagrant's mysterious past and an event that happened years ago in the close-knit community of Montmartre.
