The Hammer of God | A Father Brown story by G. K. Chesterton | A Bitesized Audio Production

Father Brown unravels the mystery surrounding the murder of a philandering local squire. The culprit seems obvious, he has means and motive... but he was miles away at the time. And why was such a small hammer chosen as the murder weapon? A new, original recording of a classic public domain text, read and performed by Simon Stanhope for Bitesized Audio.

Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936) was an English author, theologian, philosopher and critic, who produced a wide-ranging output of fiction, poetry and journalism. His writing covered a wide variety of subjects, ranging from crime fiction to Christianity. His most famous novel is probably the "metaphysical thriller" 'The Man Who Was Thursday' (1908), but his most famous fictional creation is surely Father Brown, the Catholic priest-detective who featured in more than 50 short stories published episodically between 1910 and 1936. A complete contrast to his (near) contemporary Sherlock Holmes, Father Brown is quiet, unassuming and solves crimes with instinct, intuition and a deep understanding of human nature. 'The Hammer of God' was first published under the title 'The Bolt from the Blue' in The Saturday Evening Post on 5 November 1910, and the following year as part of 'The Innocence of Father Brown', the first of several books which comprise the Father Brown series.
