There, among the lighthouses, mussel farms and the eerie wail of foghorns, he discovers that a community's loyalties hide unpleasant truths. Penguin is publishing the entire series of Maigret novels in new translations. This novel has been published in a previous translation as Maigret in Exile.

Un polar en Vendée et qui sent l’Atlantique, la pêche et les moules sur les bouchots à marée basse. Avec un Maigret qui picole pas mal et qui finit par se fâcher lors d’une longue chansonnette ! ( )
