The Blue Cross by G.K. Chesterton

The Blue Cross by G.K. Chesterton

Aristide Valentin, the greatest detective in France, has crossed the sea to catch Flambeau, the greatest thief in Europe. But in London the only clues are very strange. Someone has swapped the salt and the sugar, thrown soup at a wall, mixed up the signs on the oranges and nuts, and broken a window, then paid for it! The trail leads across the city to a quiet heath at sunset, where two priests sit talking under the stars. One of them is carrying a priceless silver cross set with blue jewels.

The first Father Brown mystery, retold for readers aged 8–12 and illustrated in crayon and pencil.
