Publisher's Synopsis
'The father of contemporary European detective fiction . . . I loved the exotic setting of Parisian bars and run-down hotels, the economic storytelling' Ann Cleeves
A new selection of novels featuring Simenon's literary legend, Inspector Maigret
The last time Maigret went home to the village of his birth was for his father's funeral. Now an anonymous note predicting a crime during All Souls' Day mass draws him back there. Before long the prediction has become a brutal reality - and the Inspector discovers he is no longer welcome, as troubling memories resurface, and hidden vices are revealed.
