Pius the Twelfth has long been vilified as "Hitler's Pope," but a key part of the story has remained untold. Pope Pius ran the world's largest church and oldest spy service. Under his leadership the Vatican spy ring actively plotted against the Third Reich and conspired to assassinate Hitler. Church of Spies throws open the Vatican's doors to reveal how the world's greatest religious institution dealt with the greatest moral crisis in history.
