G.K. Chesterton’s Father Brown detective stories have been entertaining readers and movie goers alike for nearly a hundred years. They were originally delivered in five volumes. However, there were three additional stories, two of which only appeared in magazines, and a third which Chesterton finished before he died and which was to signal the beginning of a new Father Brown collection. Horatio Press is happy to present those three leftovers together in digital e-book format for the first time. But while we’re calling these Father Brown Leftovers, the reader will find nothing stale or sub par here. These tales are every bit as satisfying as any of those found in the original five volumes. One note should be made concerning the last story in this collection: Father Brown And The Donnington Affair. The first half (more than half actually) was not written by Chesterton, but by Max Pemberton. It was a device used in The Premiere Magazine at the time where Pemberton would outline a mystery and then invite various detective authors to have their detectives solve it. Chesterton accepted enthusiastically, and as usual, his Father Brown gives us a murderer at the end that we would have never guessed.
