Pope And Cardinals Clash In Gripping
New Novel of Conspiracy in the Vatican !
“The Vatican Conspiracies” Reveals Political and Theological Intrigue
At the Top of the Vatican Hierarchy
December 13, 2011 (Denver, Colorado, USA). In a sensational and riveting new novel entitled, “The Vatican Conspiracies,” author James “Mac” McCarty unveils the as-yet-untold story of passion and pressure, politics and protest, pride and principle, and plotting and power, all told against the backdrop of the world’s oldest institution -- the 2,000-year-old Holy Roman Catholic Church. McCarty’s remarkable plot is as intricate as it is unique. The novel is available in both hardcover and e-book formats.
As the novel unfolds (largely in Vatican City), the Catholic Church’s highest leaders confront an array of daunting challenges: The Vatican must find new revenue sources, and quickly. The Church has a catastrophic priest shortage. Priest child molestation scandals continue to rock the Church, and drain its treasury. Massive lawsuits loom over the Vatican and the papacy. Some of the Vatican’s most valuable assets are missing. Meanwhile, a new Pope plans sweeping reforms in Catholic teachings and policy that are certain to create division throughout the Church.
Suddenly, a new and even more dangerous crisis threatens the Vatican – an emergency that the Church’s own rules, traditions and procedures prevent it from resolving. The Catholic Church’s very survival as an institution hangs in the balance, as competing cardinals jockey for power in their efforts to surmount – or take advantage of – the chaos that reigns at the top of their Church.
