About this audiobook
Only the reticent catholic priest Father Brown can deduce the extraordinary truth behind this bizarre murder.
G. K. Chesterton
G. K. Chesterton (1874–1936) was a prolific English journalist and author best known for his mystery series featuring the priest-detective Father Brown and for the metaphysical thriller The Man Who Was Thursday. Baptized into the Church of England, Chesterton underwent a crisis of faith as a young man and became fascinated with the occult. He eventually converted to Roman Catholicism and published some of Christianity’s most influential apologetics, including Heretics and Orthodoxy.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I chose this as a light read on a day off. To my surprise, I found myself wrapped in a deftly sketched and quite dark tragedy, ripe with all the hidden evil and insanity lurking in the human heart, but shot through with strains of decency and humility.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Excellent story, reader needs to slow down just a titch, and add more lilt to her voice.
