Sinossi
"Una dose eccessiva di calmanti ha ucciso il papa", disse il segretario di Giovanni Paolo I. "L'hanno ammazzato perché voleva cambiare le cose", dichiarò una stretta parente. "Infarto del miocardio", fu l'annuncio ufficiale del Vaticano alla stampa mondiale. La morte di Albino Luciani avvenuta nella notte tra il 28 e il 29 settembre del 1978, trentatré giorni dopo la sua elezione, fin dal primo momento ha destato molti dubbi e sospetti. Fu una congiura? Questo libro intende svelarlo narrandone tutti i particolari.

Recensioni
My 2nd reading of this book. A must for conspiracy theorists, as it truly shines a light upon a lot of very unusual matters that surrounded the death of Pope John Paul I, which happened just about a month after his election as Pope. One of his main issues was corruption in the church and the Vatican Leggi tutto
I haven't been paying attention. At almost 50, I've lived so far through five popes, and all this time, I've perceived the Holy See, as indeed holy. That even if it's in itself a sovereign state, it is exempt from the plague of corruption that infests most countries in the world. On this account, wa Leggi tutto
A riveting eye opening book into the life and death of Albino Luciani and the inner workings of the Catholic Church. A fascinating read page after page that reads like a high paced thriller. Unbelievable that the author has been proved right many times over.
While focused on the events, persons and interests surrounding the death of Pope John Paul I, this book also serves as a biography of Albino Luciani, (17 October 1912–28 September 1978). Yallop displays a high regard for Luciani, a great disdain for other Vatican figures associated with its banking Leggi tutto
This is a strange book, almost a historical piece now - do they make books like this anymore? It reminded me of Holy Blood, Holy Grail: it´s one of those serious, very-80´sy, blockbuster-looking investigation books which uncover ´secret organisations´ and ´the shocking truth about what really happen Leggi tutto
Overlong revelation on the 33 day pope that rose from nowhere and descended into the same. Some plausible conspiracy theories. No bashing of Catholicism, but with new(for it's time) insight into the impenetrable overlord bureaucracy known as the Vatican. Seems like Luciani would have brought the chu Leggi tutto
No one, it seems, remembers Pope John Paul I, perhaps because his papacy only lasted a month. This book makes a plausible case for the theory that he was murdered. I was a college freshman when he became pope and then died. Although not a Catholic, I participated in many discussions that brought up
