The Yellow Dog: Inspector Maigret Series, Book 5
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
A gripping mystery from Georges Simenon in which Inspector Maigret must go up against small town suspicion—and revenge
In a small, seaside town in the northwest of France, the local wine dealer is wounded by a gunshot while retuning home drunk from a hotel bar. Maigret, who is heading up a mobile squad of the Paris police force, is called in by the mayor to solve the crime. But upon settling down in the hotel, Maigret quickly discovers a curious cast of characters awaits him there—and they all have something to hide.
In the course of this strange case, a customs official is shot, a retired journalist is lost and found, and a vagrant is attested, but through it all Maigret has his sights set firmly in the direction of the truth, even as a strange yellow dog haunts the neighborhood. Fast-paced and wholly unpredictable, The Yellow Dog is a sharp mystery set against the cutthroat backdrop of small town politics.

A triple play from Simenon -s eternally popular Inspector Maigret series, these debuted in 1931 ("Lock" and "Head") and 1936, respectively. These petite editions (6.5" x 4.75") all sport art deco covers with beautiful period monochrome pictures by Brassaï and a nice photo of Simenon on the inside cover. Very spiffy.Copyright 2006 Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.
