"It's the month before the Pint-Pulling Olympiad and the town of Killoyle, Ireland, is all abuzz. After crashing into a cross-dressing church sexton, local lush Mick McCreek loses his job as a car tester and enlists lawyer Tom O'Mallet to represent him in a wrongful termination suit. But O'Mallet and the fussy librarian who hosts Mick's unemployment seminars are not who they seem: their real gig, it turns out, is selling missiles to a splinter group of the IRA, and they've decided to use Mick - and another client, the hapless waiter Anil Swain - as the dicey operation's clueless patsies. Can Anil's sexy do-gooder cousin Rashmi prevent an attack on the Pint-Pulling Olympiad before it is too late?"--Jacket.
