Book excerpt: The Vatican history is a thousand-year-old history of lights and shadows, of great personalities and gloomy individuals. The story of the election and strange death of Pope Luciani is fully part of the long series of episodes that are still shrouded in mystery: a sudden death with no investigation. And then a whole series of stranger things, starting with the 33-day duration of the pontificate of Pope John Paul I, to arrive at the third secret of Fatima of which it seems that Albino Luciani was aware. But in this story intersect also the great scandals of Vatican finance which in the 70s and 80s profoundly undermined the credibility of the Church with the case of the Banco Ambrosiano and that of the Vatican Bank. And again high Vatican prelates enrolled in Freemasonry and the figure of Licio Gelli plotting in the shadows: what happened in Rome in that September 1978?
