Taxi driver, Brendan Murphy - known to all as "Murph" - abandons his cab and the mean streets of Denver for his hometown, his "dear ol' Maw," and an Irish Catholic clan the size of County Cork. It's Christmastime in Wichita. "Home for the Holidays," the fourth in novelist Gary Reilly's Asphalt Warrior series, has Murph reluctantly re-establishing relationships with his brother and sisters while trying to save an old friend from making a soul-killing mistake: seeking a socially acceptable job.
It will take all of his persuasive powers to rescue Jimmy Callahan from "the suits." That, and maybe a Christmas miracle.
