Maigret Goes Home

At the crack of dawn, on a raw morning, Chief Inspector Maigret finds himself in the church of Saint-Flacre, the village where he was born and raised. Two weeks before, a note had warned the police that at the first Mass on All Souls' Day a crime would be committed. This is a masterful tale of aristocrats fallen on hard times and of a profligate son who in the final hour finds unexpected strength of character.
