Overview
A firearm filched from his own apartment, a politician’s corpse, and an ostentatious woman of mysterious means—in Maigret’s latest case, he must connect the dots before tragedy strikes twice.
When Maigret’s revolver is stolen from his apartment, under the nose of Madame Maigret, he knows he must act fast. The Smith & Wesson .45, a gift from the FBI, has a very sensitive trigger. And anyone who bothers to steal a revolver certainly plans to use it. Within forty-eight hours, the investigation turns up a deranged baron who collects Maigret press cuttings; a dead politician, his corpse stuffed into a trunk; and a high-living woman of dubious means. To untangle these threads and apprehend his thief, Maigret dashes to London’s Savoy Hotel—where, sleep-deprived in jarringly luxurious surroundings, he starts to question his understanding of the whole case. A finely turned mystery and a wry commentary on wealth’s corrosive allure, Maigret’s Revolver is Georges Simenon at his worldly wise best.
