‘Night At The Crossroads’ is a complex tale of murder, deceit and greed in an isolated country community. Maigret has been interrogating a mysterious Dane, Carl Andersen, for hours without a confession. Why was the body of a diamond merchant found in his car at his isolated mansion? He’s either innocent or a very good liar. What does his beautiful but vulnerable sister know? And what compels everyone at the Three Widows Crossroads to be so secretive? Maigret sets out to find his killer.

The cast also includes Kevin McNally (Pirates of the Caribbean), Tom Wlaschiha (Game of Thrones), Mia Jexen (Dual), Stephen Wight (The Paradise), Mark Heap (Friday Night Dinner) and Robin Weaver (The Inbetweeners).
