Theft, extortion, embezzlement, mafia ties, drunk driving and even murder — these are the true stories of priests gone bad.
It’s a dark and windy Easter in Toledo, Ohio when Sister Margaret is found murdered in the chapel, the victim of a Satanic ritual. Twenty years later her murderer is revealed to be the parish priest Father Gerald. Monsignor Skehan and Father Guinan embezzled 8.1 million dollars from their affluent Palm Beach, Florida, church, Guinan fleeing to Ireland and leaving Skehan to face the music. Father Fink of Texas crashed his car into a restaurant while driving drunk, injuring ten people. The civil lawsuits that ensued featured innovative — and shady — defense tactics.
Radic dramatically retells these stories and many others, drawing on his personal trials as a pastor convicted of embezzlement, forgery, and fraud.
“This book is highly recommended to those interested in true-life crime.” — The Oklahoman
“Compelling, and almost unbelievable, but tragic too, this book about men of God committing such heinous acts, is truly a book you will never forget.” — Shelf Life
