Product Description
With this groundbreaking expos, The Boston Globe has delivered the single, most comprehensive account of the cover-ups, hush money, and emotional manipulation used by the Catholic Church to keep its long history of sexual abuse secret. With the same incisive reportage that broke the scandal wide open, The Boston Globe's team of expert investigative reporters also provides important analysis of what's at stake and what this 'crisis of faith' means for Catholics everywhere.
