A thrilling exposé recounting how members of Opus Dei — a secretive, ultra-conservative Catholic sect — pushed its radical agenda within the Church and around the globe, using billions of dollars siphoned from one of the world’s largest banks.

For over half a century, Banco Popular was one of the most profitable banks in the world — until one day in 2017, when the Spanish bank suddenly collapsed overnight. When investigative journalist Gareth Gore was dispatched to report on the story, he expected to find yet another case of unbridled capitalist ambition gone wrong. Instead, he uncovered decades of deception that hid one of the most brazen cases of corporate pillaging in history, perpetrated by a group of men sworn to celibacy and self-flagellation who had secretly controlled Popular and abused their positions there to help spread Opus Dei to every corner of the world.

Drawing on unparalleled access to bank records, insider accounts, and exclusive interviews with whistleblowers from within Opus Dei, Gore reveals how money from the bank was used to lure unsuspecting recruits — some of them only children — into a life of servitude. He also tracks the ascent of Opus Dei around the globe, exposing its role in bankrolling many right-wing causes, including the US Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade.

In an era of disinformation and deep fakes, here is a real-life conspiracy which hid in plain sight for more than sixty years. Gore tells a shocking story of money and power that spans decades and continents. Documenting Opus Dei’s secret history for the first time, this thrilling work of investigative storytelling raises important questions about the dark forces that shape our society.©2024 Gareth Gore (P)2024 W.

Fascinating true story of how a group within the Catholic Church continues to influence the world through illicit and ultimately evil means. The power this group seems to have and the impact it’s had on those it has trapped, enslaved and tricked is devastating. The author also does a very good job of showing the continued links between Catholicism and the Right.

The church and the rich and powerful collude to keep themselves in the privileged positions they enjoy at the expense of the rest of us. Affront served with a big dollop of hypocrisy. A very disturbing and well recounted tale about a very dark situation. I really hope the perpetrators get their just rewards in this life as well as the hypothetical next one.

Shocking but not surprising

I couldn’t put it down. As an ex-member who was there for over two decades, I could relate so deeply to some of those events, where I had known some of the characters in the book personally. I am grateful for the author deep research and its courage to publish the book. I do hope it will be a help to many.

Excellent insight into Opus Dei
