Another Simenon, my fifth this year, but this one's not a Maigret, being a stand-alone mystery. Only just started, so I don't have a great feel for it yet. The blurb says it's about a disheveled, drunken old man, Hector, whose run-down mansion becomes the site of the murder of an unidentified man, which the police seem uninterested in investigating thoroughly, settling on the wrong suspect. Hector decides to get to the truth! 🔎
