Georges Simenon: A Man's Head (Inspector Maigret), Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Inspector Maigret believes a man he convicted may not be guilty after all-and so hatches an audacious plan to save him before he is condemned to death.

A man escapes out of the High Surveillance wing of the most infamous penitentiary in Paris. Members of the Police Judiciaire see him, but no one moves a muscle. In fact, it's part of a daring plan concocted by Inspector Maigret, who thinks Joseph Heurtin may not be guilty of the murder of Madame Henderson and her maid-despite Maigret's having convicted Joseph himself months before. Once on the loose, Joseph is the subject of careful surveillance: will the accused return to his ring of criminal masterminds, or is he indeed as unknowing as he maintained in every interrogation?

With his career hanging in the balance, and a search for the escapee ongoing, Maigret must prove Joseph's innocence before it's too late, before an execution comes to pass. Georges Simenon's A Man's Head is a suspenseful, thrilling tale of a desperate quest for the truth.
