A handpicked selection of novels featuring Simenon's legendary literary detective, Inspector Maigret, with striking new covers

Inspector Maigret is standing in the pouring rain by a canal near the town of pernay. A well-dressed woman, Mary Lampson, has been found strangled in a stable nearby. Why did her glamorous, hedonistic life come to such a brutal end here? Surely her taciturn husband Sir Walter knows - or maybe the answers lie with the crew of the barge La Providence.
