The narrative unfolds during a pivotal papal election in Rome, where the Roman Catholic Church grapples with internal strife and a crisis of leadership. A faction of cardinals advocates for a moderate approach, clashing with powerful adversaries within the Vatican intent on preserving the status quo. The coalition's candidate, a compassionate Spanish scholar, faces significant danger, while Sean Cardinal Cronin and his loyal ally, Bishop John "Blackie" Ryan, navigate the treacherous political landscape to champion reform and unity amidst chaos.
