Overview

Father Brown is not an ordinary detective. Father Brown is an ordinary parish priest with extra-ordinary common sense. He never goes looking for mysteries but mysteries always find him. Knowing the very heart of man, with all its weaknesses and wiles, he sees the truth where others are blinded by their own illusions.
