  “If one man does not make a move, the other must, and by permitting the adversary to make the attack, one learns something about him.” — Hercule Poirot 
  The number 4 
  Scribbled, over and over again. There were tens, maybe even hundreds… all 4’s. 
  A sheet of paper, almost drenched in ink, with only the number 4 written on it — What could it mean? 
  Hercule Poirot was a detective who was good at his job. He was a skilled detective who had come to lament that all his cases thus far were, quite frankly, tame and boring. 
  He wanted an adventure. A thrilling case where he would have no other choice but to risk everything to solve it. 
  And that’s exactly what he’s about to get. 
  Poirot finds himself an uninvited guest, standing at his doorway and absolutely caked in dust. All Poirot could do was exchanged an alarmed look with the mystery man, before the guest collapses on the floor. 
  The only clue was that all the man would utter were Poirot’s name and address, before hastily scribbling out the number 4, again, and again, and again. 
  This collection of short stories by popular English mystery author, Agatha Christie, are about to send you of on a wild goose chase alongside Private Investigator Hercule Poirot. Enter a world full of secrets and espionage and quickly learn that, sometimes, to uncover the truth, you must be willing to risk your life.

  The Absence of Mr Glass

  G. K. Chesterton

  A fun-filled little story by Chesterton, the father of the paradox and perhaps as skilled a popular storyteller as any of the Edwardian Era. It is always a delight to read any of these simple Father Brown stories because while they are worthy detective tales in their own right, they are also ingeniously constructed parables which teach us, not too didactically, how not to assume or judge things prematurely. Chesterton's writing is witty and concise and yet also vivid and nuanced and Father Brown himself is a charmingly congenial character worth rooting for every time. 
  Father Brown is a short, nondescript Catholic Priest with shapeless clothes and a large umbrella who has an uncanny insight into human evil. His methods, unlike those of his near contemporary Sherlock Holmes, although based on observation of details often unnoticed by others, tended to be intuitive rather than deductive. Although clearly devout, he always emphasizes rationality: despite his religiousness and his belief in God and miracles, he manages to see the perfectly ordinary, natural explanation of the problem. He is a devout, educated and "civilized" clergyman, who is totally familiar with contemporary and secular thought and behavior. His character was though to be based on Father John O'Connor (1870 - 1952), a parish priest in Bradford, Yorkshire.
