Father Brown is a sleuthing priest created by English novelist G. K. Chesterton. Chesterton based the character on Father John O'Connor (1870 - 1952), a parish priest in Bradford who was involved in Chesterton's conversion to Catholicism in 1922.
Father Brown solves his crimes through a strict reasoning process more concerned with spiritual and philosophic truths rather than scientific details, making him an almost equal counterbalance with Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, whose stories Chesterton read and admired.
This version includes 24 Father Brown mysteries:

These are well-written, thrilling mysteries. A must-have for classic mystery fiction fans!
