FOR years, they’ve been a popular series of books. Recently, they’ve been a staple of afternoon television.

Now, Father Brown is once again sleuthing on stage.

The mild-mannered priest has a knack of being in the right place at the right time … if you count being around for a murder as being in the right place…

In this latest production, The Murderer in the Mirror, Father Brown is trying to solve the mystery of the death of a famous actor just before the dress rehearasal of a West End production.

When he sees a shattered mirror in the dressing room, he quickly realises sinister forces are at work. But if all the possible suspects were on stage at the time of the murder, whodunit?

It’s up to Father Brown to find out.
