Plots(1)

When it comes to amateur detective work, don't let this priest's absent-minded air and penchant for an occasional tipple fool you. His kindly eyes pick up clues that professionals usually miss, and his keen understanding of the human condition lets him search men's souls for motives. Often joined by his friend, the thief-turned-private-investigator Hercule Flambeau (Dennis Burgess), Father Brown has won legions of fans as much for his compassion as for his crime-solving.
