Maigret Gets Angry by Georges Simenon, Ros Schwartz

Not one of my favorite Maigret novels. I never felt that I really got to get to know the characters, and the mystery itself felt a bit contrived. A lot of the drama, I suspect, is dependent on a more nuanced understanding of social class and social cues in 1940s France than I possess. For those readers with such knowledge, the book may well hold subtle delights.
