Автор:G. K. Chesterton Год: 2011 Издание:Книга по Требованию Страниц: 166 ISBN: 9781614271932 2011 Reprint of 1922 Edition. From the creator of Father Brown comes a collection reviewed by "The Armchair Detective" as "dazzlingly executed and richly atmospheric." Eight stories recount the adventures of Horne Fisher, a socialite who uses his powerful deductive gifts to investigate crimes committed on the sprawling country estates of the aristocracy. Evocative portraits of pre-World War I Britain. 'The Man Who Knew Too Much' has some similarities to the Father Brown stories: Horne Fisher, the hero of the stories, is connected and indeed related to many of the high-ranking politicians of his age and thus 'knows too much' about the background of the mysteries in which he becomes embroiled and which he unravels.
