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

Inspector Maigret is supposed to be working to stop the gangs of robbers terrorising Paris, but then a body is found, dumped in the Bois de Boulogne. It turns out to be a quiet, likeable burglar he has known for years, and for whom he cannot help feeling affection. Defying orders from his superiors, he determines to discover who killed his old acquaintance - even if it leads him into terrible danger.
