Synopsis

After New York attorney Will Ross gains acquittal for a child abuser and the child is subsequently killed, he resolves to abandon law and become a children's entertainer. Will's change of heart and career is a catalyst for his lover, Clara, who quits her prestigious job to pursue documentary film-making. While the couple are united in their fervor for their nascent careers in art, unexpected challenges rip them apart. Feeling abandoned, Will ventures into his new passion, donning clown shoes, picking up his old guitar, and taking on a special guitar student. Only when the boy's life is threatened does Will take up law again, fighting not only to protect the child, but to clear his guilt and free himself to love.

    Most folks around Deerfield know that Paul Durkin used to drink too much. People also talk about when he managed to get sober for quite a long while and spent most of his time helping countless others in nearby parts who were struggling with addiction issues. Paul was hailed as a humble small-town hero back then. The sort of fellow who would do anything for anybody at anytime. 
    Gossip also spreads through Deerfield in hushed tones about the odd and mysterious troubles that continued to grow in Paul’s home. The louder busybodies around town speculate that he must have denied and ignored these issues until the horrible thing happened and Paul lost everything, including his sobriety. 
    But Old-Timers sitting at recovery meetings in church basements around those parts know that most folks get sick and tired of being sick and tired eventually. They often say that change is the only constant in this life, and that recovery and redemption are available for anyone willing to get out of their own way and reach out for help. 
    Several years into his fall from grace, Paul is about to be challenged to recover and rebuild from the ashes his life has become. He might also learn what the Old-Timers know about the true power of making amends with yourself and others while being humble enough to receive help from the countless unsung heroes in this world.

    Humor, myth and adventure combine as the story mixes Irish folklore and modern-day New York. The mix of this mythological Irish background with contemporary American life is one of the novel’s strengths and provides many instances of humour and contrast.  
    The tone balances seriousness with something altogether quicker and more irreverent as the novel progresses, keeping the story modern and the reader interested.

    There's nothing unusual about a ham operator contacting other radio enthusiasts. Unless he's been dead for five years. When Harrie McKinsey and Ginger Vaughn—who have been described as the Lucy Ricardo and Ethyl Mertz of murder mystery—decide to study for their ham radio licenses, they get pulled into this mystery and find a trail leading to a long-lost treasure somewhere in New Mexico. Before it's over, there's another murder, an abduction, and a showdown with an aging Mafia don who values treasure more than human life. Harrie, Ginger, and their merry band of FBI, APD, and private detectives have to be on their toes to prevent another murder and save a family.
