Maigret and the Ghost

 by Georges Simenon

A policeman gets shot and Maigret is pulled into the art world and the lives of the rich Europeans who operate there. 7/10

Maigret's Anger

By Georges Simenon 

Another great story.  A lawyer is demanding large payments from clients by telling  them he is using the money to bribe policemen, including Maigret. 

Meanwhile someone gets killed.  Is it a gangland killing or is there a link to the lawyer? 8/10

Maigret and the Tramp

 by Georges Simenon

A really enjoyable Maigret. A tramp has been attacked and thrown into the Seine but he survives. 

Nobody is that interested but Maigret has his suspicions as to the truth and that there may be more to this than meets the eye. He gradually uncovers the story but is unable to do anything about it as nobody wants to talk including the tramp. Great storytelling 9/10

Maigret and the Saturday Caller

 by Georges Simenon

A man turns up at Maigret's house and claims he is planning to kill his wife and her lover who have gradually taken over his house and painting and decorating business. Then he disappears and Maigret senses something is not right. A sad story with an interesting ending 8/10

Maigret and the Good People of Montparnasse

 by Georges Simenon

An unusual murder in a family of "good" people gets Maigret frustrated and having to dig into the family history to understand the case. 7/10

Maigret and the Lazy Burglar

 by Georges Simenon

 Maigret is fed up with a change in the judicial organisation which has seen the examining magistrate getting more involved and controlling, so while supposedly investigating some jewellery heists Maigret gets sidetracked by a murder of a burglar he has known for thirty years. 8/10

Maigret and the Old People

 by Georges Simenon

A retired diplomat is found dead in his apartment and suspicion falls on various old friends, lovers and his housekeeper-the relations between whom are unusual. Maigret gets rather frustrated dealing with them but it was an enjoyable tale and not least because I solved it before Maigret! 8/10

Maigret in Court

 by Georges Simenon

Maigret is working on a bank hold-up but the story reflects on an earlier case of murder which has now reached court. A husband has to face the truth about his wife as his life unravels in the witness stand. 8/10

Maigret's Secret

 by Georges Simenon

This story starts brilliantly with a rice pudding being enjoyed by Maigret while dining with his wife at their friend's house. After dinner Maigret starts to reminisce on a previous case which was taken out of his hands by the examining magistrate but about which Maigret always had doubts. A man was accused of killing his wife but he maintains his innocence even as evidence mounts against him. 9/10

Maigret and the Reluctant Witnesses

 by Georges Simenon

Maigret is thinking about impending retirement and getting grumpy. He has to deal with a young new prosecutor who he does not take to and in the middle of this he has to deal with a murder in a house where nobody wants to talk about what happened. Enjoyable for the grumpy Maigret on show. 8/10

Maigret's Doubts

 by Georges Simenon

Very enjoyable, bordering on Simenon's psychological side this story starts with a man coming to tell Maigret that he is going to be killed by his wife. Not long after the wife arrives and Maigret spends the rest of the book trying to unravel what and who he is dealing with. 9/10

Maigret Travels

By Georges Simenon 

A great case where Maigret moves in the world of the super rich following clues around France and Europe after a wealthy English man is found dead in his hotel bath. 8/10

Maigret Enjoys Himself

 by Georges Simenon

Maigret has been advised by his doctor to take a holiday but rather than go away Maigret and his wife stay in Paris to enjoy a quiet August. It is not long before a murder is reported in the newspapers and Maigret takes on the role of a member of the public as he tries to solve the case by using the newspaper reports only. Great fun 8/10

Maigret's Failure

 by Georges Simenon

Another good story. Hot August and Maigret is failing to find a missing English woman when he is asked to protect a very wealthy businessman who turns out to be someone who Maigret knew at school but did not like. When he is killed Maigret tries to find the killer. In both cases there is no quick resolution but it is enjoyable to see how it unfolds. 8/10 

Maigret Sets a Trap

 by Georges Simenon

A serial killer on the loose in Paris is making Maigret angry. He sets a trap to try and find the killer and nearly gets a policewoman killed. By the end he is highly infuriated and ready to beat up the killer who by this time is in his office. I found this one slightly off par given the level of the previous two but still a good listen. 7/10

Maigret and the Headless Corpse

 by Georges Simenon

Another interesting case where Maigret spends much of his time in a bistro by the Canal St. Martin after a headless dismembered corpse is found in the canal. He almost stumbles on the killers by accident but the bulk of the tale is him trying to work out why and why then. 8/10

Maigret and the minister

By Georges Simenon 

A Maigret without a murder. A sensitive government report has gone missing and Maigret tries to uncover who is behind it. I really enjoyed this one 9/10

Maigret and the Dead Girl

 by Georges Simenon

Maigret attempts to solve this murder by trying to understand the dead girl. He has a detective from the second arr. one step ahead of him the whole time until the end. It was an enjoyable story with Maigret at his best at home in Paris. 8/10

Maigret goes to School

 Set in a small village that reminds Maigret of his childhood, a cantankerous old woman is murdered and the village schoolteacher, who is an outsider gets the blame.
He asks Maigret for help and this results in Maigret travelling to the village and trying to unravel village politics and history. 8/10

Maigret's Mistake

 by Georges Simenon

The lowly mistress of an eminent surgeon is found dead by gun shot to the head in the apartment paid for by the surgeon and in the same building as he lives in with his wife. 

Maigret spends a long time talking with everyone but the surgeon, who eventually contacts Maigret himself. Good story 7/10
