He also wrote novels with a clerical setting, including The Canon in Residence which has been adapted for radio and the stage; and non-fiction works on religious themes. His detective fiction was much admired by contemporary writers, including Dorothy L. Sayers, for their immaculate plotting and factual accuracy.
