Hay partes que son muy lentas pero lo vale por la trama. Me sorprendió el sentido del humor y tiene uno de los mejores finales de cualquier historia de misterio que he leído.

As the apocalypse looms, two monks investigate the lethal secrets of a wealthy abbey. One of those books which is more smart than enjoyable, but mystery fans will love the labyrinthine plot and fellow nerds will admire the semiotic shenanigans.
“It is a hard thing for this old monk, on the threshold of death, not to know whether the letter he has written contains some hidden meaning, or more than one, or many, or none at all” (610)
