Inspector Maigret finds himself caught in the middle of a husband and wife duoβs case of βhe said/she saidββwith murderous consequences
An unusually quiet day for Inspector Maigret at the Quai des OrfΓ¨vres is disturbed by a visit from mild-mannered toy salesman, Xavier Manton. Maigret is taken aback by Mantonβs revelation that he suspects his wife of plotting to poison him. And when he receives a visit from Madame Manton expressing her own grave concerns later that day, he finds himself deeply conflicted, unsure of whom to trust. Maigret heeds the advice of his seniors and begins investigating the coupleβand with every turn, new complications arise. When the case comes to a boil and a body is discovered, everyone, including Maigret, is shocked.
Maigretβs Doubts is an engrossing mystery of marriage and deceit that forces the reader to question whether our brilliant inspector may be fallible after all.
