@RogerBW@oldbytes.space In principle, I applaud you giving us an overview of these story, and a good impression how they feel, without a single spoiler. In practice, though, I am a bit miffed that you did, because I read them all, decades ago, and I don't remember the solutions at all, with the single exception of The Hammer of God. Very frustrating!

@RogerBW@oldbytes.space "Chesterton's tendency to include a troubled young couple to be set to rights" the Cadfael stories are terrible for this; a lot of the mystery is circumvented once we know perfectly well that neither of the young couple will turn out to have done it. I admit I'm not really convinced that all of four people told to watch a building under unusual circumstances would overlook the "invisible" man.
