La folle de Maigret by Georges Simenon
When an old woman contacts Maigret, sure she's about to be killed, Maigret has no reason to believe her--other than his intuition A kind but seemingly paranoid old lady turns to Inspector Maigret for help, believing someone has been in her apartment. Things have been moved around, she says, and she can feel the presence of the uknown intruder. Against the judgment of his subordinates, who insist the woman is imagning things, Maigret decides to pay a visit to her Parisian apartment to investigate--but is he already too late? Forcing the reader to question whomexactly we can trust, Maigret's Madwoman is a terrific mystery from the master Georges Simenon.
Georges Simenon (1903 1989) was born in Liege, Belgium. He started working as a reporter at the age of fifteen and by the end of his life had published hundreds of novels under his own name and sundry pseudonyms. Renowned all over the world for his series of mysteries featuring Inspector Maigret, Simenon was also the author of many psychological novels. The Engagement is one of eight novels by Simenon published by NYRB Classics.
