'His artistry is supreme' John Banville While at this time the previous day he had never heard of the Martons, the train set specialist was beginning to haunt his thoughts, and so was the elegant young woman who, he admitted, had boldly stood up to him when he had done everything he could to unsettle her. When a salesman from a Paris department store confides his secret fears to Maigret, the Inspector soon becomes caught up in a treacherous feud between husband and wife that is not as clear cut as it seems. This novel has been published in a previous translation as Maigret Has Scruples.'A unique teller of tales' Observer'One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . .

'His artistry is supreme' John Banville Eyes half-closed, head tilted against the back of his seat, he seemed not to be thinking, as the plane flew over a thick carpet of bright clouds. In reality, he was making an effort to bring names and shadowy figures to life, names and figures that even this morning had been as unknown to him as the inhabitants of another planet. The attempted suicide of a countess and the death of a billionaire in the same luxury Paris hotel send Maigret to the Riviera and then to Switzerland, as he searches for the truth amid the glittering world of the super-rich. This novel has been published in a previous translation as Maigret and the Millionaires.'One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . .

'His artistry is supreme' John Banville Standing here at the window in the middle of the morning, vaguely observing the comings and goings in the street, he had a feeling that reminded of certain days in his childhood, when his mother was still alive and he was off school because he had the 'flu or it was the end of term. It was the feeling of finding out 'what went on when he wasn't there'. Inspector Maigret is meant to be taking a holiday, but he can't resist following the development of his colleague Janvier's case in the papers - and playing a few tricks on the way. This novel has been published in a previous translation as Maigret's Little Joke.'One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . .

Maigrets första fall var inte den första Maigretbok som Simenon skrev, men det är en av hans bästa. Här möter vi Maigret som nybliven kriminalassistent och redan då visade hans sin förmåga att se igenom människor och att tåla en eller flera konjak.

'His artistry is supreme' John Banville Conflict rather than harmony probably reigned in eight out of ten of the still magnificent houses that surrounded the park. But he had rarely had the opportunity to breath such a strained atmosphere as the one between these walls. Everything seemed fake, grating, starting with the lodge of the concierge-cum-manservant, who was neither a concierge nor a manservant, despite his striped waistcoat, but a former poacher, a murderer turned guard dog. When a self-made man appeals to Maigret for protection at his lavish home, a years-old grudge from the past resurfaces and the inspector finds himself questioning his own motives.'One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . .

'His artistry is supreme' John Banville'There was no lack of picturesque individuals in a neighbourhood like Quai de Valmy. But he had seldom encountered the kind of inertia he had seen in that woman. It was hard to explain. When most people look at you, there is some sort of exchange, however small. A contact is established, even if that contact is a kind of defiance. With her, on the contrary, there was nothing.'The discovery of a dismembered body in the Canal Saint Martin leads Maigret into a tangled, baffling case involving a taciturn bistro-owner and a mysterious inheritance.'One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . .

'His artistry is supreme' John Banville 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 and, instead of making her older or uglier, it made her younger and more appealing. Maigret and 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.'One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . .

'A brilliant new translation of Simenon's critically acclaimed masterpiece.' And always the dirty snow, the heaps of snow that look rotten, with black patches and embedded garbage...unable to cover the filth. Nineteen-year-old Frank - thug, thief, son of a brothel owner - gets by surprisingly well despite living in a city under military occupation, but a warm house and a full stomach are not enough to make him feel truly alive in such a climate of deceit and betrayal. During a bleak, unending winter, he embarks on a string of violent and sordid crimes that set him on a path from which he can never return. Georges Simenon's matchless novel is a brutal, compelling portrayal of a world without pity; a devastating journey through a psychological no-man's land.

He would find himself abruptly plunged into the lives of people he had never met before, and his job was to discover their most intimate secrets. This time, as it happened, it wasn't even his job. He was the one who had chosen to come, because a teacher had waited for him for hours in the Purgatory at the Police Judiciaire.'When a school teacher from a small coastal town near La Rochelle asks Maigret to help prove he is innocent of murder, the Inspector returns with him to his insular community and finds the residents closing ranks to conceal the truth.'Compelling, remorseless, brilliant' John Gray

Georges Simenons älskade och vid det här laget klassiska kommissarie Maigret-böcker har varit svåra att få tag på men från och med i höst kommer tre titlar per säsong att ges ut av Atlantis. De första tre, Maigret på semester, Maigret på nattklubb och Min vän Maigret, räknas av många till de bästa och är alla i Gunnel Vallquists stilrena översättning. I Montmartre, där ljusreklamerna flammar på kvällen och turisterna trängs i kvarteren runt Place Pigalle, där den sista neonskylten släcks i småtimmarna och nattklubbarnas tristess avslöjas av det nyktra dagsljuset, där finner sig kommissarie Maigret en regntung dag. Han ska reda ut mordet på en vacker strip tease-dansös som polisen funnit strypt i sin lägenhet. Den döda visar sig vara nyckelfigur i ett drama som utspelas kring en rad tvivelaktiga existenser och vars trådar leder långt utanför Paris. Från sin strategiska punkt, den lilla sjaskiga nattklubben, dirigerar Maigret med sin vanliga orubbliga säkerhet spaningarna efter den gäckande skugga som sitter inne med gåtans lösning. Över den spännande jakten, som går från kafé till kafé, genom Montmartres trappor och prång, vilar en tjusande Parisstämning, som gör läsningen av Maigret på nattklubb till ett lika stort nöje för Paris-entusiasten som för deckarfantasten.

Then there are the others, like those who stood huddled on the sidelines looking disgruntled.'Maigret's impromptu visit to an old college friend draws him into a murky investigation in a small provincial town ruled by snobbery, fear and intimidation.
