This complete edition brings together all of the Father Brown stories, including two not previously available in Penguin: 'The Donnington Affair', in

The Scandal of Father Brown G. K. Chesterton - It would not be fair to record the adventures of Father Brown, without admitting that he was once involved in a grave scandal. There still are persons, perhaps even of his own community, who would say that there was a sort of blot upon his name.
