When Orithian (Rith), already stressed by his messy family life, has visions of a Bible-quoting old man, he's convinced he's just seeing things. Investigating the provenance of his unusual name leads Rith to questions about his absent father and his Christian faith--questions that seem related to the mysterious visions. An unusually nuanced examination of belief distinguishes this thoughtful novel.
