"The Secret of Father Brown" by G. K. Chesterton is a group of thrilling crime stories from the early 1900s. It follows Father Brown, a modest priest whose deep understanding of people helps him crack puzzling cases using unusual ways. As he works with crooks and other detectives, Father Brown's personality shows the tricky parts of right and wrong, and what evil really is; we meet Flambeau, a previous bad guy now a detective, waiting for Father Brown to visit. They talk about Father Brown's special way of figuring out crimes, which means trying to understand how a criminal thinks. When an American asks about his ways, Father Brown interestingly admits that he gets why murderers do what they do because he sees that he could do bad things himself. The start gets ready for a bunch of interesting mysteries where Father Brown's smart thinking and strong sense of what's right will be very important.
