The year is 1327. Franciscans in a wealthy Italian abbey are suspected of heresy, and Brother William of Baskerville arrives to investigate. When his delicate mission is suddenly overshadowed by seven bizarre deaths, Brother William turns detective. His tools are the logic of Aristotle, the theology of Aquinas, the empirical insights of Roger BaconΓÇöall sharpened to a glistening edge by wry humor and a ferocious curiosity. He collects evidence, deciphers secret symbols and coded manuscripts, and digs into the eerie labyrinth of the abbey, where ΓÇ£the most interesting things happen at night.ΓÇ¥ ----------- mp3, 80 kbps, 44.1 khz, mono audio.

ANYTHING by Umberto Eco is brilliant and this is one of his best! I'll gladly seed this and give it another listen. Consider it time well spent. Thanks!
You're welcome.
This is my first time reading Eco -- only recently started reading this. I hope he's as good as I keep hearing he is.

Alexander Adams turns out to be Grover Gardner. I used to wonder how could two people sound so alike.
