Maigret Goes to School (French:Maigret à l'école) is 1957 detective novel by the Belgian writer Georges Simenon featuring his character Jules Maigret. 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 hated the dead woman because she knew all their secrets. [1]
