The book was published also in France, Spain, Greece, Portugal, Japan and China.
In 2011 he wrote the book “Opus Dei. Il segreto dei soldi” (“Opus Dei. The secret of the money”), together with the journalist Giuseppe Oddo. Between 2001 and 2002 he wrote the books “I re Mida del calcio” (“The King Midas of football”) and “Il tesoro di Maradona” (“The treasure of Maradona”).
In the last years he dealt with some of the most important Italian financial scandals and he was a special correspondent in China, Dubai, in the Balkan area and in the Baltic countries. In 1989 he was in East Berlin and Bucharest where he wrote stories on the end of communism in East Europe.
