Description

Sample

Father Brown is a man of deep faith and quiet wisdom—but he’s no fool. In this collection of eight new mysteries, the unassuming priest faces strange tales of vampires, miraculous disappearances, and impossible crimes. Yet even when others leap to supernatural explanations, Father Brown remains grounded in reason, humility, and a profound understanding of human nature.

The Incredulity of Father Brown explores not only the curious cases that challenge logic, but also the tension between belief and superstition. Chesterton’s priest-detective navigates each story with sharp insight and gentle humor, showing that truth often hides beneath the surface—and that even the most bizarre mystery has a human explanation.

This title was first published in 1926.
