Description
Racketeers and forgers, hit men and financiers, Playboy bunnies, dope smugglers and Church dignitaries all are caught up in this true story of high drama, suspense and intrigue.From 1971 to 1973 millions of dollars worth of stolen and forged securities appeared on the international money market. Evidence of a worldwide swindle implicated the American Mafia, powerful business circles in Europe and South America-and, startlingly, the Vatican.Based on the testimony of a New York City police detective called Joseph Coffey, and using transcripts, tape recordings, wire taps, bugs, confessions and personal recollections, The Vatican Connection exposes the details behind this incredible plot and its cover-up.
