About the book

G. K. Chesterton's Father Brown Stories follows an unassuming Catholic priest whose knowledge of human weakness makes him an unexpectedly effective detective. Faced with ingenious crimes and apparently impossible events, Father Brown looks beyond appearances to the fears, vanities and desires that drive people to wrongdoing. His investigations combine logical puzzles with reflections on guilt, justice and forgiveness, often overturning the confident assumptions of more worldly observers. Chesterton's wit and imaginative plots give these classic detective stories a character quite different from the scientific deductions of Sherlock Holmes.
