Brian Flanagan, grandson of Irish immigrants, has just landed a job with
a leading bank in New York City. Like so many others, he hopes to make
his family proud while chasing the American dream. Brian is aware of his
family's ties to the Irish Republican movement and to organized crime in
the city. He is determined to write a new chapter in the family history.
Just as Brian believes he can see a brighter future, his family's past
reaches out and pulls him into a world of secrets and violence. He is
forced to risk his career, his marriage and even his own life in order
to do the right thing. A Village Voice tells the story of three
generations of the Flanagan family. From their early involvement in the
struggle for Irish independence to their struggle in order to survive
and make a new life in America.
