Father Brown #1

`How in Tartarus,` cried Flambeau, `did you ever hear of the spiked bracelet?` -- `Oh, one`s little flock, you know!` said Father Brown, arching his eyebrows rather blankly. `When I was a curate in Hartlepool, there were three of them with spiked bracelets.` * Not long after he published _Orthodoxy,_ G. K. Chesterton moved from London to Beaconsfield, and met Father O`Connor. O`Connor had a shrewd insight to the darker side of man`s nature, and a mild appearance to go with it -- and together those came together to become Chesterton`s unassuming Father Brown. Chesterton loved the character, and the magazones he wrote for loved the stories. _The Innocence of Father Brown_ was the first collection of them, and it`s a great lot of fun. `Father Brown is a direct challenge to the conventional detective and in many ways he is more amusing and ingenious.` -- Saturday Review
