In a small, fog-laden French town, Inspector Maigret finds himself drawn into a chilling mystery that blurs the lines between the living and the dead. The unexpected arrival of a ghostly figure stirs unrest among the local populace, shaking the foundations of their quiet lives. As the townspeople grapple with their fears and superstitions, Maigret’s pragmatic approach to crime-solving urges him to look beneath the surface of their beliefs.
