Death comes for the archbishop is a novel that explores the life and challenges of Catholic clergy in New Mexico during the late 19th century. The narrative follows two main characters, a bishop and his vicar, as they undertake the mission to build a diocese in the newly acquired New Mexico Territory. The story delves into their struggles with the local population, including the diverse and often resistant clergy, as well as the difficulties of navigating both religious and political power. Themes of loyalty, faith, and the clash between spiritual and material desires are explored as the bishops seek to establish a lasting presence in a region that remains divided in its beliefs. The novel also examines the relationships with indigenous people and the injustices they face, as well as the personal transformations of the main characters. Ultimately, the narrative is a reflection on the persistence of faith and the complexities of leadership in times of change.
