  • Summary

  • The hero of the new novel Death in Black and White is a Catholic priest and classic film buff who finds himself caught in a web of crime, sin, and double-crossings that rivals anything found in his favorite film-noir detective movies. The book’s author, Fr. Michael Brisson—also a Catholic priest and classic film buff—may not have real-life experience of being in the clutches of the Mob, but he does know the unique way a priest is privy to some of life’s hardest and darkest moments.

    In this episode, Andrew Petiprin speaks with Brisson about the graces on offer in the sacraments, the Catholic faith’s unflinching realism about human nature and our sinful proclivities—and how a film-noir tinged crime novel can be the perfect vehicle for exploring these themes and more.
