President Kennedy was killed by a woman—not by the near-sighted Lee Harvey Oswald… The mastermind behind the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks was only 500 meters from the collapsing skyscrapers… The attempt on Pope John Paul II was a cover for multi-billion-dollar banking fraud… These and other global crimes turned out to be connected by a single chain. The novel-version answers questions that until recently were considered rhetorical—and sometimes even forbidden. The book is based on facts and evidence obtained by the author through many years of international journalistic investigations. Among the characters there are both fictional and ciphered figures, and real people under their true names—from oligarchs, acting politicians, bankers, and Vatican officials to leaders of national and global criminal syndicates.
