    Set against the backdrop of a power struggle within the Vatican, the story follows Kiril I, a young Ukrainian pope recently freed from Siberian labor camps. As he navigates the complexities of leading a divided Catholic Church, he must confront his past and face his former tormentor to prevent a looming world war. This gripping narrative explores themes of redemption, leadership, and the weight of history, solidifying its status as a significant work of the twentieth century and the first in Morris West's Vatican trilogy.

    Participant à la fois de l'anticipation à court terme (vers la fin du XXe siècle) et de la politique-fiction (le Pape a dû abdiquer à la suite d'une révélation de la fin des temps), ce seizième roman de l'écrivain australien conserve un ton plausible. Par ailleurs, pas plus que chez Graham Greene à qui on l'a souvent comparé, il n'y a d'emphase religieuse ou d'esquisses ou d'esquives moralisantes, quoique le sujet s'y prête. Le message inhérent joue non par autorité (d'auteurs) mais par influence (provenant du for intérieur du lecteur). Réflexif.
