'A small but resonant masterpiece... this is fiction of the highest order, transcending all conventions of mere genre' John Banville, The Times

A sinister note predicting a murder brings Inspector Maigret back to the town of his birth in this classic novel featuring Simenon's literary legend

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.

Über die Urheberinnen:

Georges Simenon was born in Liège, Belgium, in 1903. An intrepid traveller with a profound interest in people, Simenon strove on and off the page to understand, rather than to judge, the human condition in all its shades. His novels include the Inspector Maigret series and a richly varied body of wider work united by its evocative power, its economy of means, and its penetrating psychological insight. He is among the most widely read writers in the global canon. He died in 1989 in Lausanne, Switzerland, where he had lived for the latter part of his life.
