The Mystery of Convent
The story deals with a woman who after undergoing the most crucial test in the love triangle that causes her to be led astray, is determined to enter the convent, after complete repentance and cleansing of her heart. She hoped to be secluded and divorced from the most tantalizing and tempestuous human desires in order to devote life in communion with God but met her doom when an unknown murderer strangled her.
