Barry the book is titled merchants in the temple, where nuzzi says the popes men are lined up on one side, while on the other are his enemies, the defenders of the status quo, adverse to any and all change. That change was started shortly after pope francis was elected. He set up a special commission to examine the vaticans finances. The books claim the Commission Found widespread shortcomings and areas where there was virtually no accounting for how money was spent. Nuzzi talks about how even the most sacred rituals are allegedly tainted by money, like the procedures for beatification and canonization, a marketplace in which millions of dollars change hands.
