An evocative tale from Georges Simenon that unearths the inspector's past: Maigret finds an anonymous note predicting a crime in his hometown.
I wish to inform you that a crime will be committed at the church of Saint-Fiacre during first mass on All Souls' Day.
This handwritten note is deposited at the headquarters of the Police Judiciaire in Paris. Maigret sets off for the village, having been there last for his father's funeral.
As bleary-eyed people depart the All Souls' service, Maigret thinks the note must be wrong—until the motionless Countess of Saint-Fiacre, upon closer look, is found dead in her pew. Who is responsible for the crime? Could it be the countess's young secretary and alleged lover, the tight-lipped priest, the profligate Count of Saint-Fiacre, or the new estate manager? Though inundated with troubling memories from his past, Maigret remains steadfast in his hunt for the truth behind this sinister turn of events.
