Product Description

Review
A thriller without an ending...Yallop has surely proved there is a case to answer. --Guardian

An astonishing book...a story of corruption, lies and disinformation. --Daily Mail

Excellently done.......An engrossing and disturbing book. --Economist

Product Description
Denounced by the Vatican as fanciful and absurd , this classic of investigative reporting has been updated with incontrovertible new evidence that shows that Pope John Paul I was murdered. 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. New evidence has been gathered from John Paul I s doctor, who states that the Pope was not ill at the time of his death; from the priest that discovered the Pope s death; the ongoing Calvi murder trial.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blueprint for Murder of a Pontiff, 7 Aug 2008
Murder in the Vatican: The Revolutionary Life of John Paul and The CIA, Opus Dei and the 1978 Murders

In 1984, David Yallop's `In God's Name' did a riveting job in proving this Pope was murdered. In fact, no one is going to walk away from this book without the firm conviction this man was murdered. Nevertheless, through the years, Yallop's best seller has ignited a mass of `papal murder' literature, most of which like Paul Williams' `The Vatican Exposed' adhere to Yallop's convincing hypothesis John Paul was murdered because of his involvement in the Vatican Bank. There are a few like `A Thief in the Night' by John Cornwell which try unsuccessfully to prove Yallop wrong - that this Pope died a natural death. It is a tall order to challenge Yallop's contention this Pope was murdered, as the facts as published in the world press which he details in brilliant methodical fashion prove his case.

Concerning `why' the Pope was murdered, there are a few books which differ from the mainstream. One author, Lucien Gregoire, takes the investigation in a different direction. In `Murder in the Vatican' Gregoire writes, "`The death of the pro-Communist Pontiff Paul VI gave the CIA the opportunity to force election of a pro-American Pope. The CIA joined factions sponsoring the Opus Dei anti-Communist candidate Polish Cardinal Wojtyla. When Luciani (John Paul I), an avowed Marxist in every sense of the word, particularly in his driving ambition to rid the world of poverty, was elected, it struck a nerve of shattering proportions in the United States. Particularly so, in that, as a cardinal, Luciani had openly supported Oscar Romero and the revolutionaries in Central America. The perils of potential multi-Cubas became imminent. The dangers to the security of the United States had become real. . ."

Yet, no one should read any book concerning the revolutionary life and mysterious death of this Pope without first reading `In God's Name', the classic Blueprint for Murder of a Pontiff.

5.0 out of 5 stars Frightening if true, 11 Mar 2007
By J. Mellor "stayleyvegas" (Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
true story about corruption within the Vatican. A book I have read several times and each time I pick up on something different.

The accusations he makes against the Vatican are frightening and unbelieveable: corruption, money laundering & murder amongst other things. He started the book at the request of an unnamed source within the Vatican to investigate the murder of Pope John Paul I, Albino Luciano, known as "The Smiling Pope" who was found dead 33 days after his election in 1978.

It was the author's conclusion that the Pope was murdered and the evidence for this is presented in this book.

This book is frightening, fascinating and disturbing. At times it is very detailed but this is a measure of the research that has gone into it.

Originally released in 1984 and to date not one singular accusation by the author has been disproved. All accusations he has made remain undisputed. Is this because the evidence he presents points to the truth??


Whatever your views on the Vatican before reading this book then there is a strong chance your views will change afterwards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Death of a Pope, 7 Oct 2007
By M. A. Ramos (Florida USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Albino Luciani was elected Pope and chose to be Pope John Paul the First. Not only becoming the first double name in the history, but also appended the first to it. He was known as the "Smiling Pope" and though his reign was the second shortest in history, only 33 days, he was loved the world over. This wonderful Pastor would have taken the Church back to its Gospel roots where it belongs. He was truly a Man of God. And you could see from his 33 days as Pope that he would have been the greatest Pope ever in the eyes the world.

This book builds a very good case showing that Pope John Paul I was murdered, as many has always thought. It also exposes the corruption both within the Vatican and in the Diocese of Chicago during the years covered. All his research show ties between the Vatican, the Mafia and the Freemasons tied to financial corruption. Documented proof is uncovered and other governments have tired to act on them, but they are blocked by the Curia according to the book.

The author names those involved in the illegal and immoral acts and their motives and opportunity to have Pope John Paul I killed. The author leads the reader to see that it is no coincidence that the Pope was killed the evening before he was going to clean house. Though I was surprised by how obvious the cover-up and lies were according to what we read here. I highly recommend this book.
