Fratricide
Maigret reçoit successivement la visite de Xavier Marton, un personnage falot et timoré qui accuse sa femme de vouloir l’empoisonner, et celle de Gisèle Marton qui a suivi son mari jusqu’au Quai des Orfèvres. Il annonce son intention de la tuer si jamais il ressent les symptômes d’une intoxication. Il meurt la nuit suivante, empoisonné, sans avoir pu mettre ses menaces à exécution.
