Представляємо четверту збірку відомого англійського письменника Ґілберта К. Честертона (1874–1936) про детективні пригоди отця Бравна. Історії про священика-детектива вирізняється сюжетною динамікою, парадоксальністю мислення, а часом навіть ексцентричністю. Однак у цій збірці отець Бравн найвиразніше представлений не стільки як геніяльний детектив, а насамперед як добрий пастир, що глибоко й щиро вболіває над кожною впавшою душею. Мета отця Бравна не стільки вивести злочинця на чисту воду, скільки відкрити йому очі на гріх і навернути до покаяння У видавництві “Свічадо” також вийшли: - Ґільберт К.Честертон "Хрест із сапфірами" - Ґільберт К.Честертон "Таємниці аристократів" - Ґільберт К.Честертон "Небесна стріла"
