Georges Joseph Christian Simenon 1903 1989 was a Belgian writer. A prolific author who published nearly 500 novels and numerous short works Simenon is best known as the creator of the fictional detective Commissaire Jules Maigret who appears in 75 novels and 28 short stories. The first novel in the series Pietr-le-Letton was serialized in 1930 and appeared in book form in 1931; the last one Maigret and Monsieur Charles was published in 1972. The Maigret novels were translated into all major languages and several of them were turned into films and radio plays. Three films were made in the late 1950s and early 1960s starring Jean Gabin: Maigret and the St. Fiacre Case; Maigret Sets A Trap; and Margret Sees Red. "Maigret's Rival" is one of the very best of the police procedurals by Georges Simenon that feature Commissaire Jules Maigret of the Paris Criminal Police solving a murder outside the capital working without the benefit of his investigative assistants forensic labs and official credentials. The action takes place in the Atlantic Coast-based Vendee in a small town peopled by self-preoccupied members of the haute bourgeosie and a peasantry suspicious of outsiders. Originally published in 1944 as "L'inspecteur Cadavre" and later translated into English as "Maigret and Inspector Cadavre" it features a Maigret whose investigative talents and ability to read the nuances of French social hierarchy are already well developed. In this instance the Commissaire must solve the question of whether a young man run over by a train died as the result of an accident or murder. Despite efforts to stymie his inquiries Maigret uncovers within a few days the secrets motivations and complex relationships--including several love affairs--that reveal the truth of the grisly death. ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 176 pages .

Mass Market Paperback. Georges Joseph Christian Simenon 1903 1989 was a Belgian writer. A prolific author who published nearly 500 novels and numerous short works Simenon is best known as the creator of the fictional detective Commissaire Jules Maigret who appears in 75 novels and 28 short stories. The first novel in the series Pietr-le-Letton was serialized in 1930 and appeared in book form in 1931; the last one Maigret and Monsieur Charles was published in 1972.

Three films were made in the late 1950s and early 1960s starring Jean Gabin: Maigret and the St. Fiacre Case; Maigret Sets A Trap; and Margret Sees Red. Maigret's Pickpocket was published as Le Voleur de Maigret in 1967. It was translated by Nigel Ryan. A thief steals Maigret's wallet on a bus then returns it in an apparent fit of remorse. Interviewed he discloses the horrific death of his wife who has been shot. Maigret begins an investigation into the murder which has happened on the fringes of the film world. His confidant his pickpocket is a tortured genius whose poverty has deformed him. The circle of his acquaintances whom Maigret meets confuse the real with the apparent. To understand the crime he has to understand the people concerned. Simenon who knew quite a bit about the film world he was a regular at Cannes where he sometimes judged and an intimate of Federico Fellini describes the financial poseurs who act as producers the actresses who will do anything for a part the writers and directors hungering to be proclaimed as geniuses the hangers on who put their careers on hold for easy film money. For anyone with an interest in cinema this is a fascinating depiction. ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 151 pages . Harcourt Brace & Company: Harvest Books paperback
