In one of the most explosive works of investigative journalism of the twentieth century, In God's Name presents a meticulously researched case into the mysterious death of Pope John Paul I, who died just thirty-three days after his election in 1978 — a death the Vatican declared from natural causes without an autopsy. David A. Yallop argues with chilling precision that the Pope was murdered, and constructs a devastating portrait of six prime suspects whose financial corruption, political ambition, and ties to shadowy organisations like the Freemasons and the Mafia made the pontiff a dangerous obstacle to their power. Yallop's relentless investigative style dismantles the institutional silence that surrounded one of history's most consequential and unexplained deaths, drawing on years of research and interviews conducted across multiple countries. The book uncovers deep-rooted corruption within the Vatican Bank and the murky networks connecting organised crime, rogue financiers, and the Catholic Church's inner hierarchy. A landmark work that sent shockwaves through the corridors of Vatican City upon its publication, it remains a gripping and profoundly unsettling account of power, faith, and betrayal — leaving the reader to wonder how many of its darkest conclusions have never been fully refuted.
