Episode Description

A celebrated war hero. A broken sword. A story everyone believes.


In this classic Father Brown mystery by G. K. Chesterton, appearances, patriotism, and public memory are placed under the priest-detective’s quiet, penetrating gaze. What begins as a tale of national pride slowly becomes an unsettling search for truth—and Father Brown alone suspects that the legend may hide something far darker.
