Hello and welcome to another episode of nostalgic mystery Radio. I'm your host, Stevie K.

And it's my honor to bring you the radio shows of yesteryear. For this episode, I bring you,

Father Brown, episode titled The Three Tools of Death, originally aired July 22nd, 1945.

When a troubled young woman's father is killed just weeks after her mother's death,

Father Brown must help her deal with her grief,

while solving the father's inexplicable murder by one of three weapons.

So sit back and relax, and I hope you enjoy this nostalgic mystery radio.

Thank you for listening.

The Adventures of Father Brown.

And here he is Father Brown, the best-loved detective of them all. Humanity produces optimists only because it has never produced a really happy man. From the masterful and exciting pages of G.K. Chesterton

comes that fascinating human being, Father Brown, played by Carl Swenson.

Underneath the modest exterior of Father Brown is the rich character of a generous, deeply human man

with a sensitive and quick-witted mind.

In addition to being a man of God,

he is a man of the world, a man of science,

and a brilliant amateur detective.

And now, the three tools of death.

Facing the afterglow of a beautiful summer sunset,

Father Brown sits alone in the study of his modest parish house.

He is half dozing when Nora, his housekeeper, enters.

Father Brown.

Father Brown.
