Summary
Lionel Fribourg is a musician who is desperate to compose his own symphony.  For that reason, he needs peace and quiet, but his Parisian apartment is so noisy that it is impossible for him to write a single note.  By pure coincidence, he meets Agnès, a woman who lives alone in a big house in the country.  They start a relationship and Lionel quickly realises that her peaceful house would be perfect for him.  However, there is a problem.   Agnès’s father, Monsieur Devillard, intends to come and live with her.  The man is a carpenter and his only interest is in making boats, which he does very noisily.  When Lionel pays Devillard a visit, he realise that the man doesn’t like him and will be his eternal enemy.  So why should he not kill him?  Alas, this will only be the first in a series of murders...
