With a scope and daring not possible until now, an unlikely international alliance of top-level political, financial, and religious interests sees the way clear at last to its ultimate goal: the establishment of a single global society. Utopia. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThese are men with nothing in common but immense power and a towering ambition for still more. With world unity and prosperity as their slogan--and with betrayal, scandal, and murder as their ready weapons--they have the means and the will to capture as their own the perfect vessel for their plans: the oldest, wiliest, and most stable political machine in the world. The Vatican. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt the vortex of this lethal struggle stands the embattled Pope, a geopolitical genius whose elimination is the short-term solution to a long-term goal, and two American brothers, Paul and Christian Gladstone, one a lawyer and the other a priest, who appear to be the perfect pawns. One falls prey to the sharp teeth of greed for power. The other will become one of the Slavic Pontiff's closest allies . . . and will discover the darkest secrets at the very heart of papal Rome. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom America to Europe to Russia, in broad landscapes and clandestine corridors, a rich and varied cast--presidents and politicos, simple saints and savvy sinners, popes and pope-makers--clash with one another amid dramatic and sometimes bloody events that will affect the destiny of every person alive today.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMalachi Martin \u003c\/b\u003e(1921-1999) was an Irish Catholic priest who also wrote many books on the Catholic Church including \u003ci\u003eThe Decline and Fall of the Roman Church\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHostage to the Devil: The Possession and Exorcism of Five Contemporary Americans\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eKeys of This Blood: Pope John Paul II Versus Russia and the West for Control of the New World Order\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 656\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 13, 1998\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47255968448761,"sku":"9780385492317","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/bCbVJq2pjW9780385492317.webp?v=1768730758","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/windswept-house-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
