Written in riveting fashion by the coauthors of The Secret War Against the Jews, this book tells one of the darkest tales of World War II. After the war, fearing Soviet expansion, the Papacy formed an espionage alliance with British and American intelligence. In pursuit of Cold War goals, these powers helped Nazi criminals escape Europe to combat Communism. The Vatican's Nazi smuggling network was infiltrated by Prince Anton Turkul, a Soviet double agent who turned the operation into a sting for the Kremlin. This work exposes Turkul's "Red Nazi" operation and reveals how Kim Philby, the notorious British-Soviet double agent, was nearly sacrificed to protect Turkul's Vatican initiative. It explores the Vatican's complicity in aiding Nazi criminals to evade justice, originally documenting the Vatican-Swiss bank connection to Nazi gold and the hidden ties to Western investors in Nazi Germany.

The updated edition includes a new introduction and final chapters that highlight the media's oversight of the Vatican's role in the Swiss-bank narrative. The authors reveal that U.S. and British code-breakers knew about the Holocaust as early as 1941 but misled the press, and they discuss ongoing efforts by various governments to obscure the presence of Nazi war criminals today.
