Father Brown, G. K. Chesterton's lovable little Norfolk priest, has an uncanny knack of unraveling mysteries that leave lesser mortals floundering. His sympathetic understanding of human nature never deserts him, even when he himself is touched by a breath of scandal, thanks to the hasty conclusions of a crusading newspaperman. In this collection, Father Brown uses his distinctive style of deduction to solve the seemingly insoluble. The stories included are: - The Absence of Mr. Glass - The Paradise of Thieves - The Duel of Dr Hirsch - The Man in the Passage - The Mistake of the Machine - The Head of Caesar - The Purple Wig - The Perishing of the Pendragons - The God of the Gongs - The Salad of Colonel Cray - The Strange Crime of John Boulnois - and The Fairy Tale of Father Brown
