Denounced by the Vatican as 'fanciful and absurd', this classic of investigative reporting. Yallop's ground-breaking investigation into Pope John Paul I's death just 33 days after his election is a tale of intrigue,murder and corruption. It reveals the dark heart of the Vatican via a trail of evidence that connects the papacy, the masons, Opus Dei and the mafia. Yallop proposes the theory that the pope was in "potential danger" because of corruption in the Istituto per le Opere di Religione (IOR, Institute of Religious Works, the Vatican's financial institution, commonly known as the Vatican Bank), which owned many shares in Banco Ambrosiano. The Vatican Bank lost about a quarter of a billion US dollars.
