Being Irish in Chicago means you're blessed with proud heritage and with a hometown abundant in opportunities to celebrate your roots. Look beyond the shamrocks and green beer and into the heart and soul of Irish Chicago with this comprehensive guide.

Reporter Charley Hubbs has left almost everything of his former life behind--even part of his memory. Now Charley has the story that any reporter would kill for. Problem is, he might have done just that--and his name has moved from the bylines to the headlines. Enlisting the aid of seductive, whip-smart bartender Elizabeth "Lizzy" Zapler, he makes a daring courthouse escape. From that point on, it's a race against time for the truth. Along the way, Charley discovers that he can run, but not hide, from his past. Against the backdrop of Chicago's storied Wrigley Field, a baseball shrine cursed by a billy goat, Charley is caught in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse that plays out in two seasons--one of futility and the other of hope.
