Dark Mysteries of The Vatican - Paperback

by H. P. Jeffers (Author)

WHAT THE VATICAN DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW: The lies. The conspiracies. The cover-ups. The truth. Deep behind the walls of the world's holiest site is a dense network of lies, corruption, and conspiracies fueling the Vatican's vast and unchecked influence on world events. From the Holy Orders that defied the commandment "Thou Shalt Not Kill" to the scandals splashed across international headlines, the Vatican is no longer shrouded in mystery, legend, and secrecy. It's all here: - The shocking and unsolved murder of the corrupt Vatican financier known as "God's Banker" - Real-life exorcism-and shocking rumors of Satanism - The Vatican's startling views on extraterrestrials and end-of-world prophesies - The Vatican's hidden ties to Nazi Germany and the Mafia - The bizarre rituals of the ultraconservative Opus Dei - The Vatican's ruthless 500-year war with the Freemasons - Pope Pius XII's anti-Semitic indifference to the plight of Europe's Jews and the Holocaust - And much more! This utterly fascinating, unflinching account is the most definitive exposé ever written about the most secretive institution in the world.
