I'm not generally into detective stories, but as with anything else he wrote, I *love* Chesterton's Father Brown stories.

As Agatha Christie wrote:

Father Brown has always been one of my favorite sleuths...He is one of the few figures in detective fiction who can be enjoyed for his own sake, whether you are a detective fan or not.

Right on. I don't MIND mystery stories at all, and actually like them quite a bit, but even if I wasn't a fan of detective stories I'd still like the Father Brown stories, because I really enjoy his character.
