From a bestselling author with unprecedented access to Pope Francis, an investigative look at the recent financial scandals at the highest levels of the Vatican

A veritable war is waged in the Vatican. On one side, Pope Francis advocates for a church of the poor; on the other, the old Curia with its persistent enemies and various lobbies struggle to preserve their privileges.

The old guard resists reforms, using all means necessary to maintain control and continue their unethical practices. They oppose Pope Francis's efforts to eliminate corruption and seek to delegitimize his opponents.

Based on confidential information, including top secret Vatican documents and transcripts of Pope Francis's admonishments regarding financial oversight, this book illustrates the undercover work conducted since his election and unveils his true enemies. It shows the instruments used for reform and aims to rid the Vatican of entrenched corruption.

"Merchants in the Temple" reveals a dramatic struggle within the heart of the Catholic Church, offering electrifying details of scheming and intrigue that will surprise every reader.
