Publisher Description

Andrew Sachs stars as the famous clerical sleuth in Series 2 of The Father Brown Stories, first broadcast on BBC Radio 4.

With his black hat, huge umbrella, unwordly simplicity and 'beaming but breathless geniality', Father Brown is one of fiction's best-loved amateur detectives. Short and tatty, but with the wisdom and insight to unravel the most wayward of criminal minds, he has entertained generations.

In Series 2, the High Priest of detection becomes involved in six intriguing cases that will tax even his mental powers to the limit. The episodes are: The Perishing of the Pendragons, The Arrow of Heaven, The Mistake of the Machine, The Golden Cross, Actor and Alibi, The Absence of Mr Glass.

Dramatised by John Scotney and produced by Alec Reid.

Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936) was born in London. He went on to study art at the Slade School and literature at University College in London. Chesterton wrote a great deal of poetry, as well as works of social and literary criticism. Among his most notable books are The Man Who Was Thursday, a metaphysical thriller, and The Everlasting Man, a history of humankind’s spiritual progress.
