In God's Name - by David Yallop (Paperback)

About the Book

An investigation into the murder of Pope John Paul I.

Book Synopsis

In September 1978, Albino Luciani--Pope John Paul I--mysteriously died only thirty-three days after his election. At the request of certain individuals from the Vatican, David Yallop began his investigation into the suspicious death and the coverup surrounding it. After more than three years of exhaustive research, Yallop published this ground-breaking report, in which he uncovers a trail of evidence connecting the papacy to financial and criminal circles worldwide, including the Freemasons, Opus Dei, and the Mafia, ultimately concluding that Pope John Paul I was murdered.

The winner of the 1985 Crime Writers' Gold Dagger Award for best nonfiction, now available in a revised edition, In God's Name is a stunning and indispensible classic of investigative journalism that unearths some of the Catholic Church's deepest secrets.
