Book Synopsis



Sesenta años de una conspiración amparada por el dinero y la religión.


El periodista de investigación Gareth Gore llegó a España en 2017 para informar sobre el inesperado derrumbe del Banco Popular, considerado hasta entonces como una de las entidades más rentables del mundo. Lo que había de ser una crónica más sobre las consecuencias desastrosas de una ambición financiera desenfrenada se convirtió en el desenmascaramiento de uno de los saqueos empresariales más descarados y de mayores implicaciones de la historia. Durante décadas, un grupo de hombres ligados al Opus Dei había controlado secretamente los resortes del banco para financiar la expansión y la influencia del grupo religioso a todos los rincones del mundo.


La reconstrucción del expolio permite documentar la historia secreta del Opus Dei, desde su fundación y su consolidación durante los años oscuros del franquismo hasta la actual organización global, cuyos lazos financieros con grandes empresas y gobiernos les ha permitido acumular miles de millones en activos. Esta riqueza sufragó su infiltración en instituciones políticas, universitarias y mediáticas tanto nacionales como internacionales, para así imponer una agenda ideológica ultraconservadora a nivel mundial, como las políticas de la mayoría conservadora del Tribunal Supremo de los Estados Unidos que consiguió derogar el derecho al aborto.


A partir de los registros bancarios, de entrevistas exclusivas con implicados y de una investigación internacional, Gore revela cómo algunos de los más importantes gestores del Banco Popular --un grupo de hombres que compartían religiosidad, obediencia y celibato-- utilizaron dinero ajeno para atraer a personas a una vida de servidumbre, para penetrar en países e instituciones de todo el mundo y para acumular poder para su organización. Opus es un apasionante trabajo de investigación que revela más de sesenta años de una conspiración real, enmascarada a plena vista y amparada por el dinero y la religión.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


Sixty years of a conspiracy protected by money and religion.


A thrilling exposé recounting how members of Opus Dei--a secretive, ultra-conservative Catholic sect--pushed its radical agenda within the Church and around the globe, using billions of dollars siphoned from one of the world's largest banks.

For over half a century, Banco Popular was one of the most profitable banks in the world--until one day, in 2017, when the Spanish bank suddenly collapsed overnight. When investigative journalist Gareth Gore was dispatched to report on the story, he expected to find yet another case of unbridled capitalist ambition gone wrong. Instead, he uncovered decades of deception that hid one of the most brazen cases of corporate pillaging in history, perpetrated by a group of men sworn to celibacy and self-flagellation who had secretly controlled Popular and abused their positions there to help spread Opus Dei to every corner of the world.

Drawing on unparalleled access to bank records, insider accounts, and exclusive interviews with whistle-blowers from within Opus Dei, Gore reveals how money from the bank was used to lure unsuspecting recruits--some of them only children--into a life of servitude. He also tracks the ascent of Opus Dei within the United States, exposing its role in bankrolling many right-wing causes, including the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade.

In an era of disinformation and deep fakes, here is a real-life conspiracy which hid in plain sight for more than sixty years. Gore tells a shocking story of money and power that spans decades and continents. Documenting Opus Dei's secret history for the first time, this thrilling work of investigative storytelling raises important questions about the dark forces that shape our society.
