The Saint-Fiacre Affair Av Georges Simenon

<b>“A writer as comfortable with reality as with fiction, with passion as with reason.” —John Le Carré<br></b><br><b>Maigret’s past comes to life in this evocative novel, set in the Inspector’s hometown</b><br><br><i>“Maigret savoured the sensations of his youth again: the cold, stinging eyes, frozen fingertips, an aftertaste of coffee. Then, stepping inside the church, a blast of heat, soft light; the smell of candles and incense.”</i><br><br>The last time Maigret went home to the village of his birth was for his father’s funeral. Now, an anonymous note predicting a crime during All Souls’ Day mass draws him back there, where troubling memories resurface and hidden vices are revealed.
