Its narrator, Jeremiah Coombs, may be the only man on earth with two fathers. Told by Billy Coombs that he had no mother, Jeremiah later learns from his grandmother that her name was Bernadette and that she died in childbirth--despite his vivid memories of her presence in his early life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the mysterious neighbor \"Ichabod\" Ernest Tyner takes on a growing role in Jeremiah's life, he reveals that Bernadette was a nun from the Sisters of Conscience who gave birth to Jeremiah on the banks of the Ohio River before drowning herself. When the truth of his conception comes to light, Jeremiah is seized by a patricidal urge that drives the novel toward its haunting revelation.
