About this ebook
The Vatican, 1978: a little-known Cardinal from Venice is elected to succeed Pope Paul VI. A compromise candidate, he takes the name Pope John Paul I, and quickly shows himself to be the liberal that the reactionaries within the Catholic Church most feared.
Thirty-three days later, he is dead. No official investigation is conducted, no autopsy is performed, and the Vatican’s press release about the cause of death is found to be largely false.
First performed in 2007 and starring David Suchet, this gripping thriller goes behind the scenes at the Vatican, uncovering the bitter rivalries, the political manoeuvrings and the unspoken crises of faith that surrounded the death of ‘the Smiling Pope’.
Roger Crane
A retired English teacher and writer. A poet, artist, and desert trekker for as long as he can remember. A life-long lover of books. These things coalesced to make him what he is today. Roger believes that reading is the only way to learn the mechanics and art of writing, but being a good observer of people and having something to say makes it come alive. Roger loves the meditative quality and beauty of the desert but writes wherever he is. He loves crafting characters by leaning heavily on his own experiences challenging life, taking risks, and making mistakes along the way. Deep thought about his characters along with exhaustive research and editing are his keys to writing convincingly.
