## About this book

The first volume in the celebrated Inspector Maigret series collects seventeen short stories that showcase Georges Simenon’s masterful crime fiction. In The New Investigations of Inspector Maigret, the Parisian detective confronts a hanged couple on a barge, a poisoning that grows increasingly tangled, and a terrified young woman’s plea for protection. Each tale peels back the facade of everyday life to expose hidden betrayals and quiet desperation.

Set against the backdrop of World War II, these stories distill the atmospheric tension and psychological acuity that define the series. This international mystery collection offers a concise entry into Simenon’s world, where ordinary people become entangled in extraordinary circumstances and only Maigret’s patient, intuitive methods can restore order amid the shadows of the city.
