Synopsis
"A writer as comfortable with reality as with fiction, with passion as with reason." --John Le Carré In this gripping novel set in an insular fishing community, Inspector Maigret must navigate an impenetrable subculture to solve a murder "It was indeed a photograph, a picture of a woman. But the face was completely hidden, scribbled all over in red ink. Someone had tried to obliterate the head, someone very angry. The pen had bitten into the paper. There were so many criss-crossed lines that not a single square millimetre had been left visible. On the other hand, below the head, the torso had not been touched. A pair of large breasts. A light-coloured silk dress, very tight and very low cut." Sailors don't talk much to other men, especially not to policemen. But after Captain Fallut's body is found floating near his trawler, they all mention the Evil Eye when they speak of the Ocean's voyage. "One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . .

    Thanks so much! Another great item from one of my favorite sellers. Item just as described and arrived in perfect condition. US Games decks always packaged in nice and attractive sturdy boxes, not flimsy throw aways. Thanks so much WOB for offering gently used books, decks, etc., at such a great value. To find gently used items looking for a new home is one of my ways, not only to save money, but to recycle. Appreciate this seller very much :)

  • The Grand Banks Cafe by Georges Simenon

    Thought I had read just about every available English translated Inspector Maigret novel by Georges Simenon, but no, I missed one! If you have never read an Inspector Maigret you are missing out. My favorite may be the Misty Harbor, but The Grand Banks Cafe which I am 2 chapters into, is definitely a good read. Chief Inspector Maigret is about to go on holiday with his wife to Alsace, when he is contacted by an old school chum who is very concerned that one of his former students, a sailor on a fishing vessel has been falsely accused of and arrested for the murder of the ships captain. This prompts Maigret to convince his wife to change their vacation plans to instead go to Fecamp...the scene of the crime and where the sailor is being held for the murder. A word of warning about Maigret ...
