The Opus Dei was a secret society, like the Masons were, back in the days of Leonardo DaVinci. Read "The DaVinci Code" to learn more about them

Opus Dei is a Catholic institution founded by Saint JosemarÃa Escrivá. Its mission is to spread the message that work and the circumstances of everyday life are occasions for growing closer to God, for serving others, and for improving society

Opus Dei which means "Work of God" is an organized group of Catholics who bond together to live holy lives. It has both lay and clergy members. Officially it is listed as a "Personal Prelature."

It's Opus Dei and it was some kind of weird religion/cult thing.
It was made popular by The DaVinci Code.

It is a devotion to closely follow the Orthodox doctrine of the Catholic Church. Several members are professional people and they could be the laity or priests or nuns. There is nothing secret about them.
