Dana Lynne O'Malley grew up believing that her grandfather was a
leprechaun. After all, that was the nickname her grandmother
lovingly gave him. Curiously, even as Dana becomes an adult, her
grandfather never dissuades her from the fantasy.
When her grandfather dies, however, it quickly becomes clear
that he is indeed more than just an ordinary mortal. He rises from
the dead, clad in his burial kilt, confident that he's been sent
back for a reason.
Dana is struggling to move beyond the tragic death of her
lesbian lover while at the same time dealing with the daunting
prospect of running the "Burlington Gazette," the family newspaper.
She dreams of branching out and thriving as a photographer.
Luckily, her grandfather's insurance policy is a pot of gold at the
end of the rainbow, and he's only too happy to allocate some of the
money to help his granddaughter find her passions.
Travel with Dana as she traverses the country, capturing the
spirit of America using the lens of her camera, much like Norman
Rockwell did with his paintbrush. It's a bittersweet journey on
which she meets a beautiful Latina named Angelita Esperanza, and
her life is forever changed.
