Maigret Travels (Inspector Maigret)
By
Publisher Description
A dead billionaire and a suicidal countess set Maigret on a trail across the Europe of the ultrarich.
The attempted suicide of a countess and the discovery that an English billionaire has been murdered in his bathtub at the same luxury hotel on the same night embroil Maigret in the intrigues of the ultrawealthy, as he follows a trail from Paris to the Riviera and Switzerland. Suddenly thrust into a world whose subtleties escape him, Maigret must contend with an unfamiliar feeling of insecurity as he questions chemical magnates, aristocrats, headwaiters, and working girls alike. To catch the killer, Maigret must first reconstruct the life of debauchery led by the victim, hoping that within this small, exclusive, and rarefied social set are the clues that he needs to solve the case. Maigret Travels takes the reader far beyond Georges Simenon’s usual Parisian haunts without compromising his signature exploration of human nature, offering a dizzying glimpse into the world of the midcentury European elite and a propulsive mystery to be unraveled.
