In the depths of the human experience, everyone endures suffering in their own unique way. How we confront and navigate these challenges ultimately shapes our identity. Do we succumb to the darkness, allowing it to consume us, plunging us into depression and destroying our lives? Or do we seek help, believing that someone can guide us through the labyrinth of our troubled and tortured minds? Behind the facade of blue eyes lies a complex world of inner turmoil, where the battle between life and self-destruction rages on. As we traverse the intricate paths of our psyche, the question remains: can we emerge victorious, or will we crumble under the weight of our own thoughts, slowly killing ourselves from the inside out?

Peter Trumper, the posing, arrogant charlatan who styles himself 'Mister French,' has been found dead, his body lying in a graveyard. If it was murder, then there are plenty of suspects: in his characteristically high-handed way he's belittled, insulted or offended nearly everybody he met. But who was so tormented by him as to seek retribution? Trumper's former colleague, the part-time schoolteacher and Ph.D. student Carol Jones, tries to unlock the secret of his death. At the same time, another question gnaws at her: whilst curiosity demands to know who committed the murder, should the killer really have to face justice? After all, as her hero Inspector Maigret once said, "The criminal is often less guilty than his victim."
