Detective fans of all races and creeds, of all tastes and fancies will delight in the exploits of this wise and whimsical padre. Father Brownâs powers of detection allow him to sit beside the immortal Holmes, but he is also âin all senses a most pleasantly fascinating human being,â according to American crime novelist Rufus King. You will be enchanted by the scandalously innocent man of the cloth, with his handy umbrella, who exhibits such uncanny insight into ingeniously tricky human problems.
This collection of twelve mysteries solved by Father Brown includes: âThe Blue Cross,â âThe Secret Garden,â âThe Queer Feet,â âThe Flying Stars,â âThe Invisible Man,â âThe Honour of Israel Gow,â âThe Wrong Shape,â âThe Sins of Prince Saradine,â âThe Hammer of God,â âThe Eye of Apollo,â âThe Sign of the Broken Sword,â and âThe Three Tools of Death.â

Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874â1936) published numerous works which include compilations of his voluminous journalism, novels, biographies, histories, criticism, Christian apologetics, poetry, and plays. Many of his novels have the genuine marks of genius. His books on Dickens (for whom he had a considerable affinity) and Saint Thomas Aquinas are considered classics in their fields.
Frederick Davidson (1932â2005), also known as David Case, was one of the most prolific readers in the audiobook industry, recording more than eight hundred audiobooks in his lifetime, including over two hundred for Blackstone Audio. Born in London, he trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and performed for many years in radio plays for the British Broadcasting Company before coming to America in 1976. He received AudioFileâs Golden Voice Award and numerous Earphones Awards and was nominated for a Grammy for his readings.
