Overview

"One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . . Simenon was unequaled at making us look inside, though the ability was masked by his brilliance at absorbing us obsessively in his stories." --The Guardian<br/><br/>Inspector Maigret is working on connecting an old nemesis to a string of robberies, but when the man is found dead, he must turn instead to hunting down his killer.<br/><br/>Maigret finds himself back on the Rue des Acacias just ten days after cracking another case there. This time, he is tasked with solving the murder of a criminal he has known for more than twenty years, one he always believed was behind a series of jewelry heists in the city. While the stakes rise, Maigret's patience is tested as he eliminates suspects neighbor by neighbor in his hunt for the murderer.<br/><br/>A riveting mystery, Maigret's Patience showcases the inimitable detective's tireless mettle in the pursuit of the truth.
