Maigret shrugged his shoulders, buried his hands in his pockets & went off without answering. He had just spent one of the most wretched days in his life. For hours, in his corner he had felt old & feeble, without idea or incentive. But now a tiny flame flickered. ` You bet we`ll see` he growled.

Penguin is publishing the entire series of Maigret novels in new translations. This novel has been published in a previous translation as Maigret Returns. ” Compelling, remorseless, brilliant.” (John Gray). ” One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century... Simenon was unequalled at making us look inside, though the ability was masked by his brilliance at absorbing us obsessively in his stories.” (Guardian). ”A supreme writer...unforgettable vividness.” (Independent).

Maigret & his fellow inspector Lognon find themselves trying to out-manoeuver each other when they investigate the case of a mysterious young woman whose new life in Paris is tragically cut short. Maigret wouldn`t have admitted that what intrigued him most was the victim`s face. All he had seen of it so far was one profile. Was it the bruises that gave her that sullen air? She looked like a bad-tempered little girl. Her combed-back brown hair was very smooth but naturally wavy. The rain had diluted her make-up a little &, instead of making her older or uglier, it made her younger & more appealing.

` He was wearing a dark suit, a beige raincoat & on his feet, which were twisted at an odd angle, he wore yellow-brown shoes, which seemed out of keeping with a day as colourless as this.
