The Gaelic Curse

Two ordinary young men are the recipients of an ancient Gaelic Curse handed down through the centuries, Bailey O'Farrell with a hump on his back that moves around and Paddy O'Reilly who has a leg that has a life of its own. Neither are accepted like regular people. They find each other over the internet and agree to get together with the intention of breaking the curse. Bailey's parents have already turned their backs on their son and left Los Angeles abandoning him and have returned to their native Cara village in Ireland. Despite his scary hump, Bailey has I.T. credentials and wins a trip to England and agrees to come to Ireland to Paddy the Limp O'Reilly to try and break the curse. The parents are unaware that their son has arrived in Cara! Through a series of unusual events, and character twists and turns and a little supernatural intrigue we follow the journey of the two boys. The story all the while is told in real time with light hearted humor as the boys encounter true love for the first time in their lives with two strong women who can see past the disabilities and awkwardness. Bailey and Limp's plight holds a mirror up to the society they find themselves in that are embarrassed by them. Each finds true love and the curse is broken. We are left thinking about the messages running through the tale and perhaps are unaware we are left analyzing our own perception of people who are different to us!
