Novels about the father of Brown are a classic of an English detective.
The important difference between the method of Father Brown and the principles of the work of his "colleagues" is not only about the disclosure of the case, but also about the salvation of the lost souls of criminals. Even to the most inveterate villains, he is trying to find an approach, soften his hearts and cause remorse. Behind the inconspicuous appearance of Brown"s father, the detective’s inquisitive mind, the mild irony of the sage and the truly Christian kindness, are hiding - qualities that help clarify the essence of the most mysterious incidents.
