Qty:

In the mid-1990s, a clandestine group of high-ranking churchmen began gathering in St. Gallen, Switzerland. Opposed to Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, the circle plotted a revolution in stealth.

By 2015, their secret ached to be told. Before an audience, Cardinal Godfried Danneels joked of being a part of a "mafia." But as explosive as Danneels's confession was, a thick cloud of mystery still enshrouds the St. Gallen mafia.

In this compelling book, Julia Meloni pieces together the eerie trail of confessional evidence about the St. Gallen group. Copiously researched and grippingly narrated, The St. Gallen Mafia sheds light on the following:

  • The mysteries of the 2005 conclave, where mafia members grew divided over a plan to back Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio as pope.
  • The war against Benedict XVI by the mafia's Cardinal Achille Silvestrini - and the mysterious "confessions" believed to be linked to him.
  • The enigmatic, complicated relationship between the mafia's Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini and Benedict XVI.
  • The mafia writings that presaged a new Francis - and the 2013 conclave that elected him.
  • Martini's enduring role as an "ante-pope" - a "precursor" for Pope Francis.

Shipping Information: Shipping times provided on this website or elsewhere are the estimated transit time of the post office and do not include our processing time. Depending on stock status and our volume of orders, delivery can vary from a few days to several weeks. If you need your package by a certain date, please contact us and we will do our best to expedite the order.

Mail Classes: Priority Mail is the name given to a mail class from USPS, and does not refer to a faster processing time by us (if you need an item urgently, please contact us and we will do our best to expedite the order). Priority Mail is the least expensive mail class available for domestic packages over one pound and international packages over four pounds. For smaller packages, First Class mail may be less expensive. Shipping times for both are comparable. Media Mail is only available for domestic orders consisting entirely of DVDs, CDs or books. It is generally less expensive than either First Class or Priority Mail, but shipping times are slower (anything from a couple of days to a week extra).

International Orders & Duty: All packages are marked with appropriate customs information. You are responsible for paying any duties or taxes as a result of import. You are also responsible for ensuring any items ordered are legal to import to your jurisdiction. Church Militant is not responsible for items seized at customs or taxes due.

Returns & Refunds: Per Michigan and US Federal law, we do not normally offer refunds or returns. If an item is damaged or the wrong item is sent, contact us and we will replace it. If you wish to inquire about a refund, exchange or return contact us - but we are not obligated to provide such and are permitted to charge a restocking fee. Please do not return items without having contacted us and arranged a return; receiving an item marked as return does not obligate us to make a refund.
