The Shoes of the Fisherman (16pt Large Print Edition)

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.
