Book 6 in the Maigret Series. Written almost 100 years ago and they were much shorter books, but I really do enjoy these books. #Classics

9th book finished for #SummerEndReadathon #SeriesLove2023 @TheSpineView

kwmg40 I'm enjoying the Maigret books too. I've been trying to read them in French. It's a bit challenging for me, especially when Simenon uses slang that was commonplace 90 years ago. 😅 7mo
Andrew65 @kwmg40 Impressive! That would add an extra challenge 😳 7mo

Mehso-so

This Maigret story about a series of frightening events in a French seaside town seemed slow and meandering to me, but everything did come together in a complex and surprising way at the end.

kwmg40 @TheSpineView @TheAromaofBooks Thanks for the encouragement! 13mo
kwmg40 @Andrew65 Simenon wrote so many Maigret mysteries that I guess at least a few of them will be duds, but overall, I love the series. 13mo

There is no way I would ever has guessed “whodunit” in this tale of secrets and lies. Superintendent Maigret‘s deductive powers, observational skills, and his uncanny ability to ferret out the truth,are a marvel.Because Maigret keeps his conclusions close to the vest,I was in a constant state of anticipation about the next steps in this intricate plot.

Dragon I used to read my grandma‘s mystery novels as a kid-Maigret - Travis McGee- Nero Wolfe ( Archie and his typewriter) etc …thanks for reminding me 💚🐉 2y
batsy I've always wanted to read the Maigret books but keep getting distracted by other books! Sounds like my cup of tea. 2y
kspenmoll @Dragon @batsy I love his character! Nero Wolfe- have to read some more of him. 2y
Dragon Me too 👍 2y

I have not read a book of his in a long time. This library find has me going in circles; I really have no clue what is going on. Several unexplained murders in a small village totally changes its tone from one of friendliness and trust to one of fear and suspicion. #porchlife #Simenon

Overall, I enjoyed it, but I especially relished an atmospheric nighttime stakeout on a Concarneau rooftop when Maigret from his position observes across an alley two of his main suspects in silent interaction. It involves a chicken.
