Maigret Goes to School (French: Maigret à l'école) is a 1954 detective novel by the Belgian writer Georges Simenon featuring his character Jules Maigret.
Plot
In the story, Maigret is called from his usual duties in Paris to investigate a murder in a small village located close to La Rochelle. A local postmistress has been killed and suspicion has fallen on the local schoolmaster. When Maigret gets there, he discovers a very inward-looking community, which generally hated the dead woman because she knew all of their secrets.[1]
Adaptations
It has been adapted several times for television. In 1992, it was made into an episode of an ITV Maigret series.[2]
