Piloting his 747, Rayford Steele is musing
about his wife Irene's irritating religiosity and contemplating the charms
of his "drop-dead gorgeous" flight attendant, Hattie. First Irene was into
Amway, then Tupperware, and now it's the Rapture of the Saints--the scary
last story in the Bible in which Christians are swept to heaven and
unbelievers are left behind to endure the Antichrist's Tribulation. Steele
believes he'll put the plane on autopilot and go visit Hattie. But
Hattie's in a panic: some of the passengers have disappeared! The Rapture
has happened, abruptly driverless cars are crashing all over, and the
slick, sinister Romanian Nicolae Carpathia plans to use the UN to
establish one world government and religion. Resembling "a young Robert
Redford" and silver-tongued in nine languages, Carpathia is named
People's "Sexiest Man Alive." (This reviewer, a former People
writer, finds this plot twist plausible.) Meanwhile, Steele teams up with
Buck Williams, a buck-the-system newshound, to form the Tribulation Force,
an underground of left-behind penitents battling the Antichrist.

Rayford Steele and Cameron ("Buck") Williams find themselves pressed into service for the man they believe could be the Antichrist. Nicholae Carpathia takes over the United Nations, signs a peace treaty with Israel, and begins to lure the nations of earth together to form one global village. Meanwhile, the judgment of God begins to fall on the earth. Buck and Rayford, along with their pastor and Rayford's daughter, must fight to stay alive and battle the forces of evil in the strength of their fledgling, newfound faith.
