It's the year 1327. Brother William of Baskerville comes to look into allegations of heresy made against the Benedictines at a prosperous Italian monastery. Brother William becomes an investigator after seven strange deaths abruptly cast doubt on his careful purpose. His weapons are Aristotelian logic, Thomas Aquinas' theology, and Roger Bacon's empirical observations, all of which have been honed to a brilliant edge by sardonic humor and intense curiosity. He gathers information, decodes documents and hidden symbols, and explores the haunting maze-like monastery where "the most interesting things happen at night."
