Maigret and the Millionaires

In the George V, a Paris Luxuary Hotel, a world celebrity has been found drowned in his bathtub, not far from a bottle of whiskey and items testifying to a recent female visitor. Grand hotels with international clients of the VIP variety are a territory Maigret abhors, but the case pulls the reluctant Inspector into high society. Behind the scenes of elegant suites, bars, lobbies, and game rooms Maigret soon finds that motives are sparked not so much by need as by greed. He also discovers that a single faux pas among the financially powerful can have serious personal repercussions, but in the end solves the case with his customary finesse.
