Georges Simenon
When Inspector Maigret receives word that Pietr the Latvian, an international criminal mastermind, is travelling to Paris aboard the Étoile du Nord, he expects a straightforward investigation. But when the man he has been tracking is found murdered, the case takes a dark and unexpected turn. Following a trail of aliases, false identities, and shadowy connections, Maigret enters a world of hotel rooms, seedy bars and respectable façades, where appearances conceal dangerous secrets.
Atmospheric and quietly unsettling, Pietr the Latvian introduces Jules Maigret: one of crime fiction’s most enduring detectives. First published in 1931, this is the novel that launched the legendary Maigret series: a masterclass in suspense and a compelling portrait of the darker corners of human nature.
Georges Simenon (1903–1989) was a Belgian novelist and one of the most prolific and influential writers of the twentieth century. Best known for his Inspector Maigret novels, he developed a distinctive style characterised by spare prose and psychological insight.
