The Last Saturday tells the story of what might happen if a man appeared in Britain and performed what could be described as a series of 'miracles'. When a speculative story about who the man might be, a second Jesus or a charlatan, is written by a newspaper journalist there is an explosion of reactions, both highly critical and supportive and the country becomes quickly divided.
The book describes how the appearance of the man and his activities develop and the drama caused by his revolutionary views on religion and other aspects of human life. The man himself is never quoted but his views are revealed by his spokesman, a person affected by one of the first his 'miracles'. His views are controversial and challenge many of the beliefs of the past two thousand years. There is a strong reaction by all sections of the church
The story is told through the lives of people who are directly or indirectly associated with him or who are affected by his words.
The story has a dramatic ending.
