Editorial Reviews

With his appealing performance, narrator David Timson is sure to win even more fans for G. K. Chesterton's unlikely sleuth Father Brown. Years of listening to his parishioners' confessions, coupled with his own keen mind, has given Father Brown the insight to analyze and understand criminal behavior. Timson imbues Father Brown's voice with the kindness and patience one would expect, bolstering it with gentle firmness and resolution. In this story, a blind woman falls to her death in an elevator shaft. Is it an accident or does it have something to do with her involvement in a cult of sun-worshippers? Listeners will enjoy how Father Brown solves the mystery in his own unassuming way.
