About the book

This first Maigret set brings together Georges Simenon's Maigret and the Calame Report, Maigret and the Saturday Caller and Maigret and the Wine Merchant. Across three novels, Inspector Jules Maigret encounters people whose fears, ambitions and private arrangements resist a simple account of events. His investigations depend on patience, atmosphere and an understanding of human behaviour as much as the gathering of clues. Simenon's economical storytelling draws readers into the lives surrounding a crime, making the discovery of motives as absorbing as the resolution of the case.
