A review by ssejig
Maigret and the Millionaires by Georges Simenon, Jean Stewart
3.0
I got this book because I really liked the Maigret radio series. This was an interesting book. the author didn't leave very many clues for the reader. Now, I was pretty sleepy while reading this so I may have missed some things. Also, the author is French so it may lead to some confusion on my part. It was really more about class differences and how the millionaires react when one of their own is murdered and another one of their own is suspected.
Colonel David Ward has died in his bathtub on the same night that his known mistress, the Countess Paverini, tries to commit suicide. Both have had a number of spouses so the jealousies could have been legion.
