If you're OK with Wikipedia:
"Quo vadis is a Latin phrase meaning "Where are you going?""

from one of the Goodreads description pages for the book-
""Quo vadis, Domine?" is Latin for "Where are you going, Lord?" and appears in Chapter 69 of the novel in a retelling of a story from the apocryphal Acts of Peter, in which Peter flees Rome but, on his way, meets Jesus and asks him why he is going to Rome. Jesus says, "If thou desertest my people, I am going to Rome to be crucified a second time", which shames Peter into going back to Rome to accept martyrdom."

It means, "Where are you going?" in Latin.

The title is taken from a scene from the book. Horrified Saint Peter is leaving Rome and suddenly he sees Jesus going towards the city. He is asking him Quo vadis ... (where are you going my master?). Jesus says: I am going to be crucified for the second time, because you do not ought to.
