Author Inspector Jules Maigret and Georges Simenon provided the world of fiction with its first great policeman detective. Using Maigret's methodology, Williams delves into Simenon's darker side - family tragedy, collaboration with the Nazis and self-made claims of sexual relations with 10,000 women. Williams talks to friends that Simenon made in occupied France, his youngest son John, and biographer Pierre Assouline to find the truth about the man, his writings, beliefs and the role his creation played in his life.
