description: It’s the hottest summer in decades in Hell’s Kitchen, NY, and elderly barfly William ‘Bela’ Smith is haunted by his past—a nightmarish secret of his daughter Agatha, and buried money he’s kept hidden for thirty years. But when he mentions the money to his chum Dunbar Clay, Bela’s memory becomes everyone’s obsession! Father Fred Nabaret is being forced to close his youth center for lack of city funding and donations. But when he enters the Blarney bar and overhears Bela and the rest of his old drunken pals (Chet Toliver, Nutsy Damiano, and David ‘The Tooth’ McWiggins) arguing about the buried loot in the Vermont woods, the priest offers a plan …. Use his VW van called Carmella for the road trip, in exchange for a portion of the buried stash. But is Bela’s memory of money real or just a delusion? What really happened thirty years ago? Finally, Bela’s convinced to confront the truth and leads them all to his secret—of Agatha and the stolen money. The Blarney Boys is a brutal, humorous and spiritual tale of honor, regret and final redemption.
