  Never underestimate the deductive prowess of a simple parish priest. 
  Beneath a shabby umbrella and an unassuming exterior lies one of the sharpest minds in Europe. The innocence of Father Brown introduces a detective unlike any other—a mild-mannered cleric whose profound understanding of human sin allows him to outwit mastermind thieves, solve gruesome, locked-room murders, and untangle baffling conspiracies. From a desperate chase through London's chaotic streets to a bloody beheading in a perfectly sealed garden, Father Brown confronts a labyrinth of crime with pure, astonishing logic. Pitted against his notorious rival, the towering phantom thief Flambeau, and Paris’s greatest police chief, Valentin, Father Brown’s only weapons are his razor-sharp intellect and deep empathy. The stakes are immense, but nothing stays hidden forever in the light of reason.

  It’s ‘set an artist to catch an artist’ . . . 
  When a flood of perfectly faked banknotes hits the market, retired art teacher Miss Emily Seeton, the Yard’s famed ‘MissEss’, is chosen to investigate a respected Geneva bank. Somehow, the forger is also mixed up in the theft of valuable paintings. 
  But Miss S. is new to air travel – surely the names Geneva and ‘Genova’ must be the same place? Bamboozling both the crooks and the police who vainly try to keep tabs on her, innocently humming the fraudsters’ musical password, she trips gaily along the dangerous trail. 
  Serene amidst every kind of skullduggery, this eccentric English spinster steps in where Scotland Yard stumbles, armed with nothing more than her sketchpad and umbrella!Editorial reviews:
