A review by missymo55
The Night at the Crossroads by Georges Simenon

4.0

I watched the drama of this book with Rowan Atkinson starring and loved it. The book was less embellished then the drama but that is Simenon’s writing style quick and to the point. Again Simenon’s twists and turns keeps the story interesting and it’s not until the last chapter it all starts making sense.
The romantic tension between Maigret and Else was there in the book but not as much as the drama which was missed and I would have liked to have known more about the murdered man! Wonder what toasted almonds taste like!
