Benjamin Wainwright returns as Jules Maigret for a second season of investigations, moral ambiguity and upheaval within La Brigade Criminelle.

Director of Police Xavier Guichard becomes wary of Maigret’s growing fame and sets out to undermine his authority. One trusted colleague departs, another is transferred, and unpopular former Internal Affairs officer George Bonfils is installed within Maigret’s team. With tensions rising and his authority under threat, the detective must navigate danger from both inside and outside the brigade.

Against this turbulent backdrop, Maigret tackles three haunting cases adapted from Georges Simenon’s acclaimed novels The Hanged Man of Saint-Pholien, Maigret’s Revolver and The Yellow Dog. Each heartbreaking crime draws him into a world where motives are hidden and the boundary between guilt and innocence becomes impossibly blurred. To uncover the truth, Maigret must look beyond the evidence, trust his instincts and pursue his own compassionate form of justice.
