The Hanged Man of Saint-Pholien by Georges Simenon. An Inspector Maigret novel.
It's a nice short novel. Loved Simenon's writing and the story. Slow paced but gripping. Inspector Maigret is a mystery. Not much is revealed about him in this book. I guess one would have to read one or two more books in the series to get a better idea. I grabbed this book from my public library as I read somewhere Simenon is a classic French noir. The Hanged Man was the only book they had. I'm glad I read it. I'll grab another Inspector Maigret story next time I get a chance.
