Book still in a great condition. >>> An exciting successor to the ten books he has had on the New York Times bestseller list - five of those at the number one spot! - At the heart of this thriller is Pope Leo XIV, a reactionary and forbidding pontiff who emerges from heart bypass surgery with a "change of heart" about a lot of things. As he struggles to overcome the policies he himself put into place, he must battle enemies from within the Vatican as well as Islamic terrorists determined to assassinate him. - This novel completes West's papal trilogy begun with "Shoes of the Fisherman" (1963) and continued with "Clowns of God" (1981).
