Set in a future where religion is suppressed and a single world government is controlled by the anti-Christ, the narrative follows a priest who rises to become pope. As society is divided between socialist and humanist ideologies, a doppelgänger of the pope emerges, claiming the title of "Lord of the World." The novel explores themes of faith, power, and the struggle against a dystopian reality, reflecting Benson's own spiritual journey and doubts about the Church of England.
