Summary

Father Brown is a priest with a gift for solving crimes in the picture-perfect village of Kembleford in the 1950s. Don't be fooled by Father Brown's mild-mannered behavior. His compassion helps him see into the hearts of people on both sides of the law, while his playful wit and razor-sharp mind catch thieves and murderers off guard. Join the Father and his good-hearted helpers as they save an innocent woman from the gallows, foil a jewel thief, catch a poisoner and more.
