The father of modern detectives
As punctilious as Poirot, as Miss Marple and as sharp as Sherlock
Holmes, Father Brown ranks higher than all of them in the pantheon of
literary sleuths. For the confessional, this humble, innocent little
priest has gained a deep intuitive knowledge of the paradoxes of human
nature. So when murder, mayhem, and mystery stalk smart society, only
father Brown can be counted upon to discover the startling truth.
The most comprehensive paperback edition available, with introduction
and chronology of Chesterton's life and times.
