📖 Story
In a shadowed monastery where faith crumbles beneath secret sins, The Name of the Rose unveils a Byzantine mystery where murder becomes a tool of control. Two seekers of truth—a brilliant monk and his vulnerable pupil—descend into corridors where knowledge is forbidden and every shadow harbors deception. Against the crushing authority of the Church, one man's intellect becomes his only weapon in exposing a conspiracy that threatens to consume the very heart of religious order itself.
