===1931: Georges Simenon=== The ''[[Inspector Maigret]]'' novels of [[Georges Simenon]] feature a strong focus on the lead character, but the novels have always included subordinate members of his staff as supporting characters. Simenon, who had been a journalist covering police investigations before creating Maigret, gave the appearance of an accurate depiction of law enforcement in Paris. Simenon influenced later European procedural writers, such as Sweden's [[Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö]], and [[A. C. Baantjer|Baantjer]].<ref>Murielle Wenger, and Stephen Trussel, ''Maigret's World: A Reader's Companion to Simenon's Famous Detective'' (McFarland, 2017).</ref>
