Maigret is taken aback by Manton’s revelation that he suspects his wife of plotting to poison him.  And  when he receives a visit from Madame Manton expressing her own grave concerns later that day, he finds himself deeply conflicted, unsure of whom to trust. Maigret heeds the advice of his seniors and begins investigating the couple—and with every turn, new complications arise. When the case comes to a boil and a body is discovered, everyone, including Maigret, is shocked. Maigret’s Doubts is an engrossing mystery of marriage and deceit.   Thirty Days of Maigret   by Georges Simenon.
