"Pyhän Pietarin sateenvarjo: Kertomus Ylä-Unkarista" by Kálmán Mikszáth is a novel published in 1895. Set in rural Upper Hungary, the story follows a poor young priest who mysteriously finds his infant sister protected by a tattered red umbrella during a storm.

Meanwhile, a young lawyer searches obsessively for this same umbrella, convinced it contains proof of his hidden inheritance, leading to an unexpected collision of faith, fortune, and fate.
