'The father of contemporary European detective fiction' Ann Cleeves.
In this classic novel featuring Simenon's literary legend, the death of an infamous gangster puts all of Inspector Maigret's skills to the test. Inspector Maigret finds himself back on Paris's Rue des Acacias just ten days after solving another case there. This time, it is the murder of a gangster he has known for over twenty years — and one he always suspected was behind a series of jewelry robberies in the city. Can he prove his theory? Maigret must wait patiently, explore every angle, and interview every neighbor until he uncovers the truth.
Translated by David Watson.
